Pulses are little marvels - protein packed lentils, peas and beans are cheap, good for health and help the soil. They're central to many food cultures including Italy and France but as a nation we eat very few other than baked beans. Sheila Dillon, Nick Saltmarsh, Sanjay Kumar and Jenny Chandler kick off any tarnished reputation of wind and worthiness with tips on how to prepare pulses with ease and how to choose them. First broadcast on the Food Programme, 1 August 2016.
