Pine Nuts

Pinus gerardiana

Pine nuts have been in cuisines around the world for thousands of years. With a distinct bitter nut flavor, pine nuts are a great way to enhance a salad or an Italian dish. The pine nut comes from the pine tree cone, which when heated cracks open, releasing the seed or pine nut. After a fire ravages a forest, pine trees will usually flourish, due to the heat releasing the seeds.
