Lentils are friendly – the Miss Congeniality of the bean world. Laurie Colwin Fall is here! I had my first crisp September morning, with enough of a chill that I thought “should I go get a jacket?” Fall brings out my comfort food recipes, and nothing is more comforting than a bowl of lentils. Here’s one of my favorites, with an Italian spin from the Umbrian lentils. (You don’t need Umbrian lentils – they’re hard to find in my area – so go ahead and substitute Lentils du Puy or regular brown lentils.)
