Legumes belong to the Fabaceae family. They are the third largest family of flowering plants on the planet, with nearly 20,000 different species on every continent.

They are defined as plants whose seeds are contained in pods and consist of :
– Pulses such as dried beans, lentils, chickpeas, peas and split peas, broad beans.
– Other protein-rich plants such as dried peas, field beans, lupins and soybeans.

In various forms – dried, fresh, canned, frozen or in ready-to-eat dishes – they can be easily integrated into everyday cooking, whatever the season.
