Where to buy?

You can find most pulses and fractions in grocery stores, organic food stores and bulk food stores. Look for pulses in the ethnic, gluten-free, bulk or canned food sections. They are also found in soups and in the baking ingredients aisle. Grocery stores that carry pulses include Safeway, Superstore, Sobeys, Co-op Food Stores, IGA, and Bulk Barn.

When buying dry pulses, look for:

• Bright coloured seeds
• Uniform size
• Smooth skins without chips or shriveled seed coats
