What it does

Research context and ingredient forms
These are historical SR Legacy data from April 2018, published in FoodData Central in 2019. Variety, water content, preparation, and recipe can change the result. Scale a matching food by edible portion grams divided by 100; do not transfer the values to a different form.
Using this information
The cooked record is not a home debittering method. Buy food-grade prepared products and follow their instructions; see the allergy note.
Considerations
Lupin can cause severe allergy, especially in people with peanut allergy, and bitter lupins require appropriate processing to reduce alkaloids. This entry does not provide a home detoxification method.
