Pine Nuts

Pine nuts are the edible seeds of pine trees and are known for their delicate flavour  and buttery texture. Pine nuts come from various species of pine trees, and different varieties may produce slightly different-sized and flavoured nuts. The most commonly harvested pine nut species include the stone pine (Pinus pinea), Siberian pine (Pinus sibirica), and Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis).Pine nuts have a mild, buttery flavour  with a slightly sweet and resinous undertone. They have a soft, creamy texture, making them a popular addition to both sweet and savoury ry dishes. Pine nuts are a good source of healthy monounsaturated fats, protein, and essential nutrients such as magnesium, phosphorus, and zinc. They are also rich in antioxidants.
