Protein miracle sweet lupin – healthy, versatile, high in protein and simply good!
The magnificent, colorful flowers of lupins, also called "wolf beans" (from the Latin lupus), adorn many a domestic garden. As flowers, they are a popular feeding place for bees and other useful insects. Botanically, their seeds belong to the legumes, just like beans, peas or chickpeas.
Although their wild and ornamental forms are inedible or even poisonous due to the high proportion of bitter alkaloids, certain types of lupine were already cultivated in ancient Greece, by the Romans and, around the turn of the first millennium, in Egypt as crops with high nutritional value, especially with a considerable protein content.
This handy, compact guide will make you want to try lupins as a protein-rich alternative to soy and will bring variety to vegetarian cooking. Sweet lupin seeds are extremely versatile and taste excellent. In addition, growing this nutrient-rich crop contributes to climate protection and health care.
- Interesting facts about ingredients, history and botany of lupins
- Tips from the lupin kitchen (products and preparation)
- 46 delicious recipes for breakfast, main courses and sweets as well as snacks and drinks
