The nutritional value of your dals can be affected if you don't soak them for the advised amount of time, in addition to the cooking time and texture. In an Instagram video posted on June 25, nutritionist Shalini Sudhakar emphasized the necessity of soaking dals. She also cautioned against throwing away the soaked water because it's packed with essential nutrients in her essay.

When using lentils, stay away from these two errors.

"You are losing crucial nutrients if you make these two errors when using dals," Shalini stated in the video. The proper way to utilize your dals is shown here. The most important thing to do is soak your dals for at least two hours. It is crucial to get rid of all the anti-nutrients, such cystic acid, so that your body can absorb the most protein from the dal.

The soaked water, she continued, contains essential nutrients, thus it should not be thrown away: “Never discard the soaked water and use the same water for cooking because in the process of soaking, vital nutrients like B and V get into this water. By throwing this water away, you're throwing those nutrients away. These are crucial dietary tips for feeding your body well.

“Important note: wash the dal 3 to 4 times before soaking to eliminate all the dust, polish and any impurities,” the nutritionist stated in her caption. When soaking the dal, make sure the water is clear.
