Pine Kernels [Pinus gerardiana]

• Rich depth of flavour.
• Creamy and soft.
• Ideal for Pesto and salads.
• Ready-to-eat or can be toasted.

The elongated shape of these Pine Kernels makes them recognisable from the shorter, more stubby Korean and Siberian Pine Nuts. They look very similar to their European cousins pinus pinea. These Himalayan pine nuts have a smooth, almost toasted flavour. They have a rich, well rounded flavour, which lasts satisfyingly on the palate.

The kernels are handpicked from the mountain region of Pakistan and are graded for premium quality before packaging.
