About Nuts, pistachio nuts, dry roasted, with salt added

The pistachio is a small, green-hued nut with a mild, sweet, buttery flavor, grown on trees native to the Middle East and Central Asia and harvested inside a hard shell that naturally splits open when ripe - a feature that earned it the nickname "the smiling nut" in Iran and Turkey. Technically a seed, the pistachio is sold roasted and salted in the shell as a popular snack, as well as shelled for cooking, with Iran, the United States, and Turkey among the top producers.

Pistachios are a nutrient-dense nut, offering protein, fiber, healthy fats, and antioxidants, along with potassium, vitamin B6, and the eye-supporting compounds lutein and zeaxanthin that also help give them their green color, and they are lower in calories than many other nuts. Their vivid green makes them a favorite in baklava, gelato and ice cream, nougat, pesto, and mortadella, and they are delicious chopped over salads and roasted vegetables; Sicily's Bronte pistachio is especially prized.

Store pistachios in an airtight container in a cool, dry place to keep them fresh and crunchy.
