Pecan Nuts

Pecans are nuts with a rich, buttery flavour and a distinctive oval shape. Pecans come from the hickory tree species Carya illinoinensis. The tree is native to North America, and pecans are a popular nut in southern regions of the United States. Pecans have a rich, buttery flavour with a slightly sweet and nutty taste. They have a tender and crunchy texture, making them a popular choice for both sweet and savoury dishes. Pecans are nutrient-dense and provide healthy monounsaturated fats, protein, dietary fibre, vitamins (such as vitamin E and B-complex vitamins), and minerals (including manganese and copper).
