All About Pine Nuts
Pine nuts are tiny little nuts that look more like seeds than anything else. There are a number of varieties of edible pine nuts, with some that come from North America and others that hail from parts of Europe and Asia. However, Russia and Mongolia are currently the biggest producers of the world’s supply of pine nuts. However delicious they may be, pine nuts are high in unsaturated fats, but because nobody ever really eats a very large portion of them in one sitting, these fats aren’t anything to lose sleep over. At the same time, pine nuts are also rich in Vitamin K1 and manganese, which is essential for healthy blood clotting. With a light, buttery taste, these nuts are very rarely the centre of their own dish, and are usually only used as garnishes, toppings, and additives.
How to Use Pine Nuts
Traditionally, pine nuts are best known as a key ingredient in pesto. However, they are also becoming increasingly popular in meat and fish dishes. They can also be added to a variety on vegetable dishes to enhance both taste and texture.
