For the Pickled Peach, put the vinegar, sugar and mustard seeds in a small pan, place on a medium heat and bring to a slow boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for five minutes. Then remove from the heat and let it stand for five minutes to cool. In a small bowl add the chopped peach and pour over the pickling syrup, mix gently together to coat the peaches. Then refrigerate for one hour or until needed.
Mix the lentils, oil, Chives and Thyme in medium bowl until blended. To serve, spread about 1 tsp of crème fraîche on the toasted baguette slice. Top with about 1 tbs of the lentil mixture and 1 tsp Pickled Peach.

Test Kitchen Tip: Black beluga lentils are small, shiny black when cooked - resembling caviar. They have a mild, earthy flavor and soft texture. They are most commonly found cooked or dried in most supermarkets or online specialty stores.
