About Pinon Nuts, roasted (Navajo)

Pine nuts, also called pignoli or pinon, are the small, ivory-colored edible seeds harvested from the cones of certain pine trees, with a rich, buttery, faintly sweet, resinous flavor and a soft, tender bite. Because they must be laboriously extracted by hand from the cones, they rank among the most expensive nuts in the world. Nutritionally they are a good source of healthy monounsaturated fats, plant protein, magnesium, zinc, iron, and vitamin E.

Pine nuts are most famous as the key ingredient in classic Italian basil pesto, but they also shine toasted over salads, pasta, roasted vegetables, and grain dishes, and they feature widely in Middle Eastern, North African, and Mediterranean cooking, from stuffed vegetables to pilafs and baklava. A light toasting in a dry skillet deepens their flavor, but they scorch in seconds, so keep them moving and watch closely.

Because their high oil content makes them prone to going rancid, store pine nuts sealed in the refrigerator for a few months or in the freezer for longer.
