Pine nuts

Pine nuts are the edible seeds of pine trees, which are found in several parts of the world, including Europe, Asia, and North America. These small, ivory-colored seeds have a mild, nutty flavor and are commonly used in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine. Pine nuts are a good source of protein, fiber, and healthy fats, as well as vitamins and minerals such as vitamin E, magnesium, and zinc. They can be eaten raw or roasted and are often used in salads, pesto sauces, and baked goods. Pine nuts are also sometimes used as a garnish for various dishes, adding a unique flavor and texture to the overall dish.
