About Nuts, pilinuts, dried

The pili nut (Canarium ovatum) is a rich tropical nut from an evergreen tree native to the Philippines, where it is a beloved specialty. Encased in a very hard, pointed shell, the creamy ivory kernel has a delicate, buttery flavor reminiscent of a mild almond or macadamia, with a tender, melt-in-the-mouth texture, especially once roasted. Pili nuts are exceptionally rich in healthy monounsaturated fats, which gives them their luxurious texture, along with magnesium, vitamin E, and protein, and they are naturally low in carbohydrates, making them popular in keto eating.

They are enjoyed roasted and lightly salted, sweetened into candies and brittle, baked into pastries, and pressed into oil, while the young nuts and even the tree's fruit pulp are also eaten. Because their high oil content makes them prone to going rancid, store pili nuts in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.
