Mung beans, also known as mash or moong beans, are a food native to India and have been cultivated for thousands of years as a delicious source of nutrition. Today, they are most popularly known for their wonderful bean sprouts. Whole mung beans have a slightly sweet, nutty flavor and can be cooked on the stovetop like other dried beans.
Mung beans’ nutrition is impressive, and the benefits of mung beans are legion. They’re an excellent source of dietary fiber and offer 12 grams of plant-based proteins per 1/4 cup serving. They’re also a good source of complex carbohydrates and iron, and dry mung beans are packed with vitamins and minerals, including essential amino acids such as lysine. Our dried mung beans are also low in calories, saturated fat and sodium, and are cholesterol free, which can offer health benefits to those on a low-fat diet.
