Steps:
- Put the lentils in a medium pot and cover with water by 1 inch.
- Add the bay leaf and garlic and bring to a boil.
- Cover and lower the heat so the lentils bubble gently.
- Cook until just tender but not burst, 20-30 minutes, checking occasionally to make sure there is always enough water at the bottom of the pan to keep the lentils from burning.
- Squeeze the juice from one of the lemons into a large bowl.
- Peel the other lemon and chop the segments roughly into small pieces, taking care to remove the seeds.
- Add the segments to the bowl along with the olive oil, capers, and chives.
- Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper and stir.
- Drain whatever water remains from the lentils and stir them into the dressing while still hot.
- Let rest, stirring occasionally to distribute the dressing, until they cool for a few minutes.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning and serve warm or refrigerate for up to several days.

LEMONY LENTIL SALAD
Lentils are a particularly robust source of protein, folate, and iron. Red, orange, and yellow bell peppers provide more vitamin C and carotenoids than green ones; these powerful antioxidants support eye health, boost immunity, and fight heart disease. This nutritious make-ahead salad is perfect for a packable lunch, picnic, or barbecue.

Steps:
- Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil; add 1 teaspoon salt. Cook lentils until tender but not at all mushy, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain in a fine sieve, rinse under cold water to stop the cooking, and drain again.
- Meanwhile, whisk together lemon zest and juice, oil, mustard, and tarragon in a serving bowl. Add lentils, bell peppers, scallions, and 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste); season with pepper. Salad can be refrigerated, covered, up to 1 day. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

- Strip leaves off stems from 1 large bunch Tuscan kale; discard stems or save for later! Stack leaves, then roll into fat cigars. Slice crosswise into ¼" strips to long, thin ribbons. Unfurl ribbons and run your knife through them just once or twice more to shorten any very long strips. Transfer to a large bowl, season with salt, and massage until kale is silkier, softer, and darker in color, 1–2 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil over high heat. While you're waiting, prep the spiced oil. Coarsely chop ½ cup raw almonds; set aside. Trim 3 scallions and separate white and green parts (save the green parts for later in the recipe); thinly slice white parts and transfer to a small skillet. Smash and peel 4 garlic cloves. Add those to same skillet, too. Using a vegetable peeler or paring knife, remove three 3" strips of lemon peel (avoiding white pith); reserve rest of the lemon for your salad dressing. Add peels to skillet. Pour ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil into skillet and stir so that all of the elements are coated in oil.
- Add 1½ cups black beluga or French green lentils to now-boiling water, reduce heat to medium, and simmer, uncovered, until lentils are tender but still al dente, 20–25 minutes (they'll turn mushy if overcooked). We love to cook lentils like pasta—that is, in an abundant amount of salted water—so that we can monitor their doneness as they cook and make sure they don't get too soft.
- While lentils cook, heat skillet with scallion mixture over medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic starts to brown and lemon peel starts to curl, about 3 minutes. Add almonds and cook, stirring frequently, until almonds are browned, about 3 more minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 1 Tbsp. cumin seeds and ½ tsp. crushed red pepper flakes—the residual heat from the oil will bloom those spices and bring out their flavors.
