I badly cooked 1 cup of lentils tonight. I followed the recipe and everything, but they were hard as little pebbles. Where did I go wrong?

Not enough water? Cooked at too high of a setting?

Lentils and other dried beans and peas need to be soaked for several hours before cooking.

Those are some that need soak time. A pressure cooker might be the answer.

Did the recipe call for pre-soaked lentils?

it said I didn't need to soak them
