I don't think I have ever tried a pistachio. I like the flavor for ice cream, though.

And cashews are pretty sweet.

IS THAT THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

3/29/2008 5:57:02 PM

not that it matters for the purpose of this thread, peanuts are not nuts, rather legumes.

THE MORE YOU KNOW!

3/29/2008 7:59:25 PM

well, for the record, cashews are seeds, not nuts--they also produce edible fruit:

3/29/2008 8:09:31 PM

I had to look it up. For everybody's benefit:

Quote :

"A nut in botany is a simple dry fruit with one seed (rarely two) in which the ovary wall becomes very hard (stony or woody) at maturity, and where the seed remains unattached or unfused with the ovary wall. Most nuts come from pistils with inferior ovaries (see flower) and all are indehiscent (not opening at maturity). True nuts are produced, for example, by some plants — families of the order Fagales. Order Fagales Family Juglandaceae Walnut—esp. Persian Walnut (Juglans regia) Butternut (Juglans) Hickory, Pecan (Carya) Wingnut (Pterocarya) Family Fagaceae Chestnut (Castanea) Beech (Fagus) Oak (Quercus) Stone-oak, Tanoak (Lithocarpus) Family Betulaceae Alder (Alnus) Birch (Betula) Hazel, Filbert (Corylus) Hornbeam "

All these are not true nuts:

Quote :

"A nut in cuisine is a much less restrictive (but vital) category than a nut in botany, as the term is applied (or misapplied, depending upon the viewpoint) to many seeds that are not true nuts. Some fruits and seeds that are nuts in the culinary sense but not in the botanical sense: Almond is the edible seed of a drupe — the leathery "flesh" is removed at harvest. Brazil nut is the seed from a capsule. Candlenut (used for oil) is a seed. Cashew nut is a seed. Coconut is a dry, fibrous drupe. Horse-chestnut is an inedible capsule. Macadamia nut is a creamy white kernel (Macadamia integrifolia). Malabar chestnut Mongongo Peanut is a legume and a seed. Pine nut is the seed of several species of pine (coniferous trees). Pistachio nut is the seed of a thin-shelled drupe. "

Haha, oh shit. I didn't know that!

So the only true nuts commonly eaten are

Walnuts
Pecans
Chestnuts
Hazelnut

3/29/2008 8:37:32 PM

PECANS!!!!
