About Nuts, ginkgo nuts, canned

Ginkgo nuts, called ginnan in Japan and baiguo in China, are the edible seeds of the ancient ginkgo tree (Ginkgo biloba), the maidenhair tree, a living fossil that has grown on earth for millions of years. Female trees drop a soft, notoriously foul-smelling outer flesh around the seed, and inside the silvery hard shell sits a soft, chewy kernel that turns a translucent jade green when cooked, with a mild, slightly sweet and nutty flavor and a faint bitterness.

A treasured, festive ingredient in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean cooking, the nuts are roasted or pan-toasted as a snack, threaded onto skewers, folded into the savory steamed custard chawanmushi, and simmered into soups, rice dishes, and congee. Ginkgo nuts provide vitamin C, copper, manganese, potassium, and B vitamins. They should always be cooked and eaten only in small amounts, since the raw nuts and large quantities contain a natural compound best avoided, especially by young children.

Store fresh ginkgo nuts in their shells in the refrigerator, and eat shelled, cooked kernels within just a few days.
