About Blue lupin

Blue lupin is a lupin grown for its seeds, which are sold whole, split, or milled into flour. The seeds are typically pale and firm before cooking, with a mild, somewhat nutty flavour. Their texture and taste vary with cultivar and preparation, and lupin seed products are distinct from the plant’s leaves or flowers.

The seeds are used in foods such as snacks and flour-based products, usually after processing that prepares them for eating. Whole cooked seeds, dried seeds, and flour differ in moisture and culinary use; the specific form and processing should be identified rather than treated as interchangeable.
