The ones grown in Europe are quite expensive. North American grown ones, though still more than regular lentils, have now entered the market at 1/3 the cost (the ones from Le Puy, in the south-west of France are $6.00 US/Pound; North American ones $2.00 US/ Pound. 2004 prices).
Cooking Tips
Blue Lentils hold their shape well during cooking. This makes them good for use in salads and other items where you want the lentils to have shape.
