The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

reviews & comments
There is no way the amount of liquid is correct. For 1 lb. of lentils it should be more like 6 - 8 cups.
This is made in a crock pot which will generate steam and add to the liquid amounts. So, yes, the amount of liquid is correct. Some cheap slow cookers don't have well-fitting lids which will cause the ingredients to be overcooked and dry, so if you have one of those then you'll need to add more liquid.
