Pine nuts are not considered nuts. They are the seeds of different types of pine trees that can be eaten. The stretched seeds of pine nuts are of ivory colour and offer you a tangy, nutty, and sweet taste. They are highly intense even though they are small in size. You can add this tasty ingredient to your snacks or recipes.
If we see the accurate definition of pine nuts, they are the seeds of pine that are found under the scales of pine cones. They are being used from Paleolithic times when humans used to hunt for livings. You can find pine trees all around the world, which means that every civilisation has consumed it.
There are three main species of pinyon pines in North America: Mexican pinyon (Pinus cembroides), single-leaf pinyon (Pinus monophylla), and Colorado pinyon (Pinus edulis). There are also eight other pinyon types, but they are used to a small extent. They are Parry pinyon (Pinus quadrifolia), sugar pine (Pinus lambertiana), Torrey pine (Pinus torreyana), Coulter pine (Pinus coulteri), and gray pine (Pinus sabineana). In this area, nuts are called by the Spanish name for pinyon pine, which is piñón (plural: piñones).
Pine nuts can be added to salads, fish, vegetable dishes, and meat. They can also be used in bakery products and made into pesto.
