#worldpulsesday — Public Fediverse posts

World Pulses Day was February 10th — a celebration of lentils, beans, chickpeas, and dried peas.

These humble ingredients are the backbone of cuisines worldwide. Every culture figured it out: pulses are cheap, filling, nutritious, and delicious.

Three recipes from three regions.

🇱🇧 Hummus — chickpeas, tahini, lemon, garlic

Glædelig bælgfrugtsdag allesammen! Hummus er det nye leverpostej, bare bedre, billigere og sundere. Kan varieres på mange måder og passer perfekt som pålæg, dip og meget andet 🫛🫘🌱

#TopicOfTheDay: Intercropping with #Pulses increases farm biodiversity and creates a more diverse landscape for animals and insects.

The nitrogen-fixing properties of pulses can improve soil fertility, which improves and extends the productivity of farmland.

Pulses can contribute to #ClimateChange mitigation by reducing dependence on the synthetic fertilizers used to introduce nitrogen artificially into the soil. #WorldPulsesDay

Today is #WorldPulsesDay and kidney beans feature in this edition of #PeriodicGraphics in C&EN on toxins in common fruits and vegetables - did you know that uncooked kidney beans contain a toxin that can cause nausea and diarrhoea? https://cen.acs.org/biological-chemistry/natural-products/Periodic-Graphics-Toxins-fruits-vegetables/98/i46

Pulses like lentils and beans are the champions of sustainable #farming, boosting soil health and pest control. 🌱

This #WorldPulsesDay, learn how diverse farming methods can enhance food production while conserving biodiversity. ⬇️

I love lentils. I'll keep cooking them for as long as I have a pulse. #WorldPulsesDay

🌿 Pulses and soils: a dynamic duo that sustain one another! 🌍

Pulses improve soil health and well-maintained soils allow pulses to thrive.

Happy World Pulses Day.

Great for your health. Great for the soil. Great for reducing climate change when substituted for meat.

Happy World Pulses Day! 🫘 🌱

I thought we were observing by trying out a recipe for silken tofu-based blueberry pancakes 🫐

… but apparently soybeans are not a pulse! Who knew 🤷‍♀️

Pulses:
☀️have a low water footprint & can better tolerate drought & #climate-related disasters
🌳in multiple cropping systems enhance agro-#biodiversity
💪are a source of plant-based protein & iron
🌱fix atmospheric nitrogen into the soil

& more...

Roses are red
Pulses are leguminous
They produce 20 times more protein per hectare
Compared to meat that comes from ruminants

Pulses can contribute to #ClimateChange mitigation.🌾

Pulses are climate smart. Their introduction into agricultural production can be a key to greater climate change resilience.
