Pistachios grow in large quantities in the Mediterranean countries, in Asia, and also in the northeastern part of Africa. A lot of pistachios grow in the American state of Texas.
It's known that
pistachios
have been eaten by people for over two and a half thousand years. In Persia pistachio nuts were considered a symbol of wealth and prosperity. Pistachios usually ripen in early August. After harvesting, pistachios need to be dried in the sun, and after that they can be stored for one year.
Pistachios are an excellent source of proteins, carbohydrates and polyunsaturated fats. Pistachios are very good for people suffering from chronic fatigue. Their properties help keep the body in good shape – it's no coincidence that in the East pistachios are called the «tree of life».
Pistachio wood has a strong, dense structure. It is highly prized in carpentry. High-quality resins are also obtained from pistachio wood, which are later used to make industrial varnishes. Since pistachio wood contains tannins, it's also used for tanning leather. Pistachios are also a source of pistachio oil. Pistachio cake is an ideal feed for livestock.
Since pistachios are very tasty
nuts
, and their shells peel off easily, they're usually most often eaten as a product on their own. However, pistachios can be added to any dishes that call for nuts. For example, pistachios can be used to replace
peanuts
or
hazelnuts
.
Pistachios are used to make not only oil –
pistachio ice cream
of a pleasant soft light-green shade is considered one of the tastiest desserts.
