Pistachio, Organic Roasted & Salted 100g

One of the oldest edible nuts on earth, pistachios have been cultivated for over 10,000 years. The fruit of the pistachio tree differs from all other nuts because of its green colour and the semi-opening of its shell. In Iran it is called the ‘smiling’ pistachio, and in China it is called the ‘Happy Nut.’ Because of this physical characteristic, it is the only nut that does not need to be shelled for roasting and salting.

Pistachios are rich in protein, cholesterol-lowering unsaturated fats, and a good source of vitamin E. With its distinctive flavour, pistachios are popular not only as a snack food but as a culinary nut – ideal for baking and cooking.
