"I tried the raw, shelled version. I've never found this option available anywhere else. They were superb and I roasted them within 2 hours of receiving my shipment in the mail. Delightful result. Exceeded my expectations."
-------- - Stuart from Ohio


"Delicious, Jumbo size and a Great Price! I was fortunate to come across your web site when I was in search of pinenuts; they are impossible to find in any of the local stores. When the first shipment arrived, both my husband and I were pleasantly surprised at the large size and freshness of these nuts. They also arrived in record time with free shipping. These pine nuts are the best that I have ever tasted; I can't get enough of them! I have tried both the roasted and the raw pinenut and they are both equally delicious. Anyone that orders will not be disappointed. Be prepared to reorder!"

Elevation and Pinecone Production
Pollination and Seed Development (18 months)

The pinyon pine nut (seed) will begin its development in early spring. It begins when the tree grows stems of pollen an average of six inches in length (light brown powder in appearance) which in time is carried away by the wind or by other means, so called pollination. From the time of pollination through to the end of summer a tiny cone about the size of a marble will develop. This pre-mature cone will either remain dormant (a sleep) until the spring or shrivel up and wither a way due to the harshness of its environment.

When spring begins, once again, the surviving cone will recommence its growth to maturity as far as it’s environment permits. The cone will develop much rapidly than the year prior and by mid-summer (June) will show signs of seed development. If nature is favorable the cone will be spared from being dried up by the suns rays (on the hotter summers or days) and by mid-August near its completion to maturity.

Depending on the environmental conditions of that year the cone could reach maturity as early as the ending of August or Mid-September. Upon reaching its maturity and with the suns help (and heat), the cone will begin to open and become dryer as the seeds inside ripen. Taking into consideration the conditions the seed may already be fully developed and ripened (edible) before the cone is completely open. Therefore, with the environment at favorable conditions, a pine nut (seed) will be formed and reach its fully developed and mature phase in a matter of 18 months. To Top

Wikipedia Pine Nut Facts (extra information on pine nuts)

Answers.com Pine Nut Facts (extra info about pine nuts)

In ecology, in regards to that of the pinyon pine tree, the elevation of the tree is an important determinant as to the quantity of pinecone production, and therefore, on the large part, will determine the amount of pine nuts the tree will yield.

Pinyon pine tree cone production is most commonly found at an elevation between 6,000 to 8,500 feet and ideally at 7,000 feet. At elevations lower or higher environmental conditions make it difficult for the tree to provide for the nourishment of the cones. Therefore in lack of that nourishment (in the most part water) the cones are more susceptible to being damaged and thus the tree will tend to abort the cone(s) in order to preserve its own health and await the following season to attempt another production of buds (or tiny cones), to than await 18 months for full cone maturity.

Our American Pine Nut Story.

Back in the 1950’s you would find thousands of American citizens whether they be native Americans or others gathering and harvesting the Nevada jumbo soft shell pine nuts by the thousands of pounds for their personal use or to sell them to the different markets in the states of Nevada, Utah, California, Oregon, Idaho, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming, Montana, and Texas. They sometimes just simply traded their pine nuts harvested for other goods in the local flee markets or in super markets. They enjoyed their community get a ways going on there camp-outs with their children and friends into the wilderness.

As time passed less and less of this practice by American citizens continued. Through the years as of today only a very few number of American citizens continue this practice. Most people are just to busy with their daily lives to be able to get away and harvest their pine nuts. Most of the older generations that use to love to go and gather their personal pinyon pine nuts have become to old to drive the distance into the wilderness of Nevada’s mountain ranges and camp out and do the gathering of pine nuts that they enjoyed very much at a younger age. We receive many emails from older folks that back in the 30’s, 40, 50’s, 60’s, etc. would go with their parents and friends to camp-out and enjoy their hunting or fishing and simply their get away to the woods and they would harvest their personal pinion pine nuts. Now in our day’s most US Citizens don’t take the time or simply don’t have the time to go and do in the woods what they did many years ago.

In our commercial harvesting business every year we encounter fewer and less personal harvesters of pine nuts as we did in prior years. We have always enjoyed meeting all these people in the woods and would like to hear all their pine nut harvesting, hunting, fishing, and camping experiences. They always try to teach us how to become more efficient in our commercial harvesting operation. For our pine nut gathering business it have been enjoyable through out the decades to meet and become acquainted with so many good folks and most of all to learn that they all love the pinyon pine forests and pinion pine nuts as much as we do.

Throughout the many decades of our involvement in the pine nut commercial business we have struggled and suffered to learn first hand how to bring about and to life a productive and profitable small family business. By this we can bring to you your American organic grown pine nuts at a bulk price or wholesale prices direct to you without any middle man between producer, harvester and consumers.

We always look at the woods as our home when we do our commercial harvest. We do all possible to prevent damage to trees in any way. We do not use any mechanical machinery of any kind to harvest the pinyon pine nuts. All the pine cones are harvested by hand one at the time. When we remove the pine nut from the cone we do use machinery for this operation and when we sort the good pine nuts form the bad ones we use mechanical machines for it. This cleaning process does not interfere with the pine tree in anyway. When looking at the woods as our home it is always in our best interest to leave things as we found them. How do we do this? Simple! We avoid cutting pine trees or breaking branches to gather the pinyon pine cones, and we gather all our garbage and remove it from the woods to the local county dumps and leave behind a clean forest for all visitors to enjoy when they stop by to visit. We rely on a healthy pinyon pine forest to bring forth a healthy pinyon pine cone that yields pinyon pine cone seed that is the pinon pine nut. Indeed this is a very precious food source for all to enjoy, the pine nut.

It brings sorrow to our family and friends when we see a good productive forest that has in the past years yielded a good bumper crop of pinyon pine cones that bring forth the seed of pine nuts that has been mowed down for life stock grassing or has been used for green wood cutting areas in the most inhuman ways to treat our precious natural resources in such a manner and also when that land is used for control burnings or experimental burnings by some universities or government agencies. We have known of this to happen in some areas that we have harvested from before.

I would like to say to all university or government agencies to stop this inhuman madness of control burnings or experimental burnings in our public lands. Commercial pine nut harvesting has never been a multi-million dollar industry like many other industries. We do not have the resources or the political pull to lobby in the US congress and our elected officials in order for them to consider better caring and protecting the pinyon pine nut forests or pinion nut forests, which is the best interest of the American people as a whole.

The product called pine nut that takes 18 months to complete its cycle from day of pollination to maturity is indeed a great nutritious and healthy food source and it is in the best interest of all Americans to keep an eye out for the pinyon pine nut forests.

The product called pine nut is very delicious and nutritious with a very unique and distinct flavor, you can enjoy them as fresh raw nuts or as freshly roasted nuts in shell or shelled pine nuts. This seed is great for a snack or food source for all of us to enjoy. One can have a great days meal by just simply eating plain pine nuts in a day time, and you’ll have a lot of energy. We don’t recommend for anybody to try this, but we can say that plenty people that we know of have done it with no side affects and no loss of energy of any kind. If you decide to get some pine nuts today we believe you will be pleased with the pine nuts and there great fresh taste whether they are fresh raw nuts, freshly roasted nuts or freshly shelled pine nuts. Remember buying bulk nuts always saves you money so call your closest pine nut lover and order together and save many penny’s and dollars. To Top

The Pignoli Nut or Pignolia Nut:

Pignoli are essential in many culinary recipes throughout the world. This commodity is most especially used in Italian delicious cuisine for their combinations of flavor that bring the most wonderful essence of smell and a very delightful taste to many recipes that include the exceptional stone pine seed which is known in the Italian language as the “pignoli nut”. Many say that Mexican cuisine is the best in all around the world we live in. I say “Viva Italia” cuisine forever and ever, as to me it is the best food, the world over. Especially all there pignoli cuisine, it is like none other on earth.

Unlike others cultures, the Italians have been using pignoli in there culinary practices for millennia’s, not just for century’s. Going back, before the Roman Empire, they were cooking the best culinary recipes of the day with pignolia. To try and match the pignoli cuisine of the Italians, with all there culinary experience, it is not rare for one to say "None other comes close".

Organic Constitute:
The number one thing in the constitution of organic farming or ranching is no secret whatsoever for those of us that have been around organic farming and organic ranching and have lived most of our lives on farms ranches and or wilderness. Being one with a natural organic environment for many decades of our lives and always looking to find a way to avoid chemical fertilizers, fungicides, pesticides and growth hormones and many other kinds of none natural science from the world that we live in today is what we like to do in all our farming and ranching ventures. For pine nuts being a part of our food supply, being one with nature is our number one priority in our lives.

We as a family always familiarize well in the woods and wilderness for these very reasons although we don’t have the comfort of a worm home we camp in the woods for months at a time and cook over a camp fire and sleep in a cold tent at night. However, indeed it has been a way for many of us to know a different part of the all natural organic wilderness in our country that one in no way can find in the city life. It brings us close to mother earth in a way that only those that try it can fully know firsthand; the big difference it brings to your daily lives.

Going back to the all natural organic wilderness and environment in some of the most remote places that we harvest our all natural organic pine nuts, that are pollinated and receive their nourishment 100% from Mother Nature in their maturing process. A cycle of 18 months to reach its completion and then yielding forth a all natural organic pinyon pine cone that brings forth a 100% all natural organic pine nut seed that we call all natural organic pine nuts. In this way it’s comforting to say that indeed it’s much bigger than organic farming and is beyond organics all together. Most of these remote areas that we gather from have American all natural organic pine nuts that are wild harvested and never have been tampered with in anyway by a human being whatsoever. Making this product of organic pine nuts available to you as pure and natural as nature intended them to be is our intention. There are very few organic products brought to you in this way from the world we live in today. Wouldn't’t it be great to bring about an all natural organic world some day? As it was back many decades ago? I believe that we all would say “Yes!” We would all love an all natural organic world, always fresh air to breathe, all natural organic flowers that emit an aroma of a very pleasant smell, organic fruits of all kinds with the most pleasant aroma and flavor for all to enjoy, organic vegetable of all kinds with the most wonderful flavors, of course organic live stock and poultry of all kinds, and let’s not forget our all natural sea creatures. He who created all living things whether breathing creature or vegetation knows best than all our science in the world today, don’t you agree? If you don’t that’s ok, this world is big enough for all of us to live in a world of many likes and opinions, in peace hopefully. One of the true definitions of all natural organics is: Un-tampered with, or by anything that is un-natural to the nature of things. To Top

The pinyon pine tree or pinon pine tree:
The pinyon pine tree is native to the southwest and west mountain region of America in the USA, predominantly in the foothills. It grows in a elevation of 5,500 feet to 8,500 feet. Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas grows the dabble leaf pine needle and is called the pinon pine tree by the native people. Its sister tree grows in Nevada, Utah and California and has single leaf pine needles called the pinyon pine tree, which is the Nevada official State tree. Both varieties of pinyon pine trees are evergreen and very beautiful. Being very productive the single leaf pinyon pine tree yields a seed called the Nevada jumbo soft shell pine nuts and the dabble leaf pinon pine tree yields a seed call by the natives in New Mexico pinon nuts or simply just called pinon or pinones. Both seeds are edible as raw nuts and can be eaten as roasted or toasted nuts.

How to: Roast or toast organic pine nuts or organic pinion nuts
The simplest and most convenient way to roast your organic pine nuts is to place a frying pan over your stove or camp fire and add a desired amount of pine nuts. When they are raw pine nuts they have a different flavor as all raw nuts do. By roasting them it brings about a richer flavor to your raw pine nuts. For some folks this is the only way to consume their organic product of pine nuts. Bring your frying pan to heat and stir your organic raw pine nuts to prevent them from burning as you would popcorn or during other toasting procedures. Their done once the freshly roasted organic pine nuts begin to pop like popcorn. Now remove them quickly from the heat to avoid them from burning up. This is a simple pine nut recipe for all those that don’t like or care to have salt added to their roasted pine nuts, but if you’d like them to be salty add a very small amount of water to your pan only enough to moist your pine nuts, add the amount of salt to your liking and stir in your frying pan until they become dry and begin to pop. Then remove them from the heat and wait approximately 5 to 10 minutes for them to cool down before eating your freshly organic roasted pine nuts or freshly toasted pine nuts. What a simple roasting pine nut recipe this is.

The simplest and most convenient way is to immediately place your supply of organic pine nuts or organic pinon nuts in a paper bag in a cool dry area keeping them from humidity to avoid mold; always keeping them in a well ventilated area. It would be best to not close your paper sack. Never place them in an air tight container unless they’re in a freezer, otherwise they will become rancid and eventually moldy. Always remember that organic pine nuts and organic pinon nuts are a perishable product. By keeping these simple steps you can preserve your organic raw pine nuts or organic Roasted pine nuts for a very long time allowing them to maintain close to a very fresh taste. When you place them in a freezer always put them in a sealed Ziploc bag or other type of sealed container. Avoid freezing and unfreezing the product as much as possible by sealing them in small quantity bags that contain only a day’s worth for consumption. This is a simple pine nut storing process to enjoy fresh raw pine nuts or freshly roasted pine nuts throughout the year. To Top


Pinyon pine tree growth:
The pinyon pine nut seed commences germination in spring under the snow packs in the wilderness when temperatures reach above 32 Fahrenheit, allowing the seed to stay humid and moist under the snow packs keeping it fresh and frozen under the snow packs through the winter. As the environment warms up the snow starts to melt gradually and the pine nuts seeds commences its germination growth turning it into a pinyon pine tree. Unfortunately, out of the millions of pine nut seeds a very small percentage will reach to become a mature pinyon pine tree. Due to the fact of the harshness of the environment; being exposed to severe hot weather in the summers, in some cases lack of rain where the immature pine tree does not have deep roots to sustain its self and perishes due to the lack of humidly. The wildlife feeds on the sprouting seeds of pine nuts from all kinds of wild birds and mammals that roam the woods leaving behind very few seeds in the end to continue it’s growth that eventually mature into a pinyon pine tree. Due to that fact that the pinyon pine tree relies 100% on Mother Nature for it’s nourishment of humidity for many decades its growth is slow and the favorable warm weather is minimal per cycle year . Once a pinyon pine tree reaches its time for pollination to develop a pinyon pine cone, which takes 18 months to reach its maturity to yield forth the seed of pine nuts that we humans love to consume, it is a very difficult cycle to complete due to the fact that’s the tree relies 100% on the environment for its nourishment. In this period lack of humidity, that nourishes the development of the pine cone, for whatever reason if nature does not provide the natural resources, the tree will abort its fruit. By the following spring the tree will once more intend to with a favorable environment and will begin its pollination and commence once again its 18 month cycle. By early summer you will notice a small marble size pine cone on the tips of the pine tree. The immature cone will grow about one quarter of an inch by the end of the summer and then will become dormant for 6 months until next spring. By having a favorable environment of humidity and temperatures the cones will commence once again quite rapidly in comparison to the previous year. By forcing a pine cone open in early summer you can see the seed’s development in the cones. By mid-summer the cone stops growing and the pine cone’s seed or the pine nut will continue to mature for about 3 more weeks. In most cases the pine nut seed will fully mature by the 10th day of September and will be ready to harvest; even though the pine cone is green and closed shut. By this date of any year someone can feel comfortable in harvesting the green pine cone and placing it in a burlap sack, exposing it to the sun for about 2 to 3 weeks in which the pine cone will gradually begin to open up and you’ll be able to see the pine nuts. I may state that the best way to harvest the pine cones that have the seed of pine nuts inside is by having an extension ladder of aluminum with a bag strapped around our shoulders, which we call picking bags. By using a heavy shirt like those of army type and industrial gloves to protect from the very sticky pine gum that the pine cone produces and the sharp pine needles that can cause severe soreness to your hands and arms. Throughout the years we have learned the easiest way to removes pine gum form your hands and your hair is by buying some mechanics hand cleaner by rubbing the hand cleaner on the pine gum removing it is quick and easily. Once you have harvested the pine cones and having them in your burlap bag exposed to the heat of the sun, the hardest part of the work is done. Once the pine cones are opened one can beat the sack a little by shaking it and hitting it against a rough surface, allowing the pine nuts to separate from the pine cones. Once the simple procedure is done, simply empty the sack into something of your choosing and separate the pine nuts from the pine cones.

There are two simple ways to separate the good pine nuts form the bad pine nuts. One that is practical and simple is by getting a container of water and pouring the pine nuts into the water, by many this is called floating the pine nuts.

But yes, since a nut is a commodity regarding to a fruit with an outer thick layer or protective covering of reasonable thickness, it is known as a nut.

Everyone keeps asking me “Where to buy nuts in bulk?” When I think about it I really become to realize that there are thousands of sources, but the true test is which one has the best nuts available in regards to taste and quality. When I go to look to buy nuts in bulk I sometimes can’t help but think that any source where the price is lowest will do. On the other hand I don’t want to buy a dried up, flavorless and malnourished nut. When I look for pine nuts I think to myself why buy nuts in bulk if I’m not saving so much money from buying just a few pounds. Let me now confuse you with such varied questions. I’m simply pointing out that when looking to buy nuts in bulk; you are looking for a significant amount in price difference and comparing quality as well. Please understand that quality nuts are always going to cost a reasonable amount more that the average price of the lower quality nuts. Here at our web site we give you the option to buy nuts in bulk at a great price, always offering top quality pine nuts with no low class nuts in our inventory. When buying these nuts in bulk you most often will be given the option to buy nuts in smaller quantities without the need to place a larger order.

When I was younger I remember buying pine nuts at my local markets and seeing that there was a standard market section and the bulk section of the store, I never would bother with the bulk area. However, as time went buy I became curious and went to that part of the store that said “Bulk Orders” and quickly came to realize the big difference in prices between the bulk nuts and the individual pound bags. I guess since I never really ate more than a certain amount of pine nuts in season during the week I never thought to think ahead and buy more pine nuts up front. Well, now since, my family and I have put our monies together to purchase 50, 100, or 200 pounds of bulk nuts. Doing so we save almost, if not up to 50%, which depending on the amount we buy turns into hundreds of dollars. Bulk nuts are found all over the internet and of course at most all grocery market or health food stores. Buying nuts in bulk will save you money and time. I mean think of it. All the time we spend driving and look or walking in the store to get our pine nuts. If we already had them bulk at home we would have one less thing on our checklist to get at the market or to order online. Imagine if we only ordered two or five pound of pine nuts and on the internet and paid for shipping and than 2 weeks later did the same thing. Imagine that! I mean we have customers that do that for the whole pine nut season. Some of them place ten separate orders and would pay for shipping. Besides the higher price per pound when purchasing smaller amount you may pay a repetitive amount for shipping which adds up to more money in the long run. Perhaps next time you’ll consider purchasing bulk nuts, either all for yourself or combined funs with the family and save a good amount of money. Imagine, you could use that saved money to watch or rent a movies to enjoy your bulk nuts with.

Throughout the many years we have discovered a vast amount of information to compile recipe pine nuts. With such information we can give our readers precise and specific details in which recipes for pine nuts they use. Several years ago a fellow asked me what recipe for pine nuts I used the most. Interestingly enough for the man I hadn’t had a quick enough response, which gave him doubt of my expertise. He soon left thinking I sold pine nuts but that I knew not what I was selling. Shortly after that experience I search the internet thoroughly for recipe pine nuts or pine nut recipes in which to my amazement found that pine nuts were such a commodity and used in so many various recipes one could lose track of all the variations and types of preparation pine nuts evolved around in the many different cultures. When people are searching for recipe pine nuts they don’t realize that they need to be more specific as to the type of recipe they want. For example; do you want chicken with pine nuts, basil and pesto sauce with pine nuts, or do you want tomato with beef and broccoli in your recipe for pine nuts. Since that day my disappointed customer left my stand I ponder now and then which recipe for pine nuts I prefer among the dozen I have sample and tasted. I’d now say that recipe pine nuts of my choice remain the chicken spaghetti with pesto basil sauce. When thinking next time about what to cook for your special guest look no further than a specific search on Google for your recipe pine nuts.

Alright, when was the last time you looked for recipes pine nuts online or in your cookbook? I would say that it use to be difficult to find a book that had much recipes for pine nuts and those really long books were almost impossible to browse with their small fine print and 100’s of pages of recipes. Now when I look at a book I rush to the index which now a day I feel specifies pine nuts and all the particular pages that have recipes for pine nuts. I notice that when browsing the web for information, many times using only specific information and not a full phrase will give more wanted results. Throughout the times of modern technology methods have been developed to browse vast amounts of information in a moment of time. “Recipes pine nuts” is just a short phrase of information that people search on a daily basis. My experience has taught me that in order to obtain the most relevant and basic detail about any specific topic is to think of a phrase that shortly and accurately identifies the purpose of the desired information.

Delicious toasted pine nuts are one thing that pine nut fans go crazy for. When I say crazy I really mean crazy. Telling someone who has never tried pine nuts that they’re crazy for the toasted pine nuts might sound more like an exaggeration, but it is not. The amazing flavor and juicy texture of this commodity is world renowned and treasured in many cultures throughout the entire globe. I get asked a lot about how I love to toast pine nuts. My quickest and one of my favorite was to toast them is on a skillet pan with a half a teaspoon of water for two cups of pine nuts on high for about ten minutes. Of course you mix them only when needed to prevent them from burning and sample them until they’re ready. I love toasted pine nuts! As a matter of fact I don’t know if I have ever tried a toasted pine nut that I didn’t like (as long as it wasn’t burned). I recall when I was a kid my father teaching me how to toast them. He did it the same way I just mentioned, but I always saw toasting pine nuts as an art. I thought it incredible how something so small could be so tasty. I was shocked when I learned that boiling pine nuts and then toasting them on the stove for a few more minutes was so easy and oh so good. Ever since I was a kid I have always loved toasted pine nuts. I eat them as a snack or toss them into my everyday dishes for a blast of flavor. They add this great texture and flavor to almost any meal. Try them in a ham sandwich, roasted or raw. In the end many people say that the toasted pine nuts are the best, although many others will say that the raw ones are. Either way, enjoy your pine nuts, whether you get them from WholeSale Pine Nuts .com or from another source. If you have never tried them roasted, perhaps your should keep it that way because there is a very high possibility that once you’ve tried toasted pine nuts you won’t want them any other way.

Pine nuts in many cultures are literally a source of food and regarded as a blessing from God and to those who are natives, as a blessing from mother earth. My friends always ask me that same question, I mean, my friends who are not already pine nut addicts. Simply put, pine nuts are small seeds that come from pine cones that contain much nutritional value and in most every species or variety of pine nuts, a great taste. I love to entertain my customers or guests on the facts and health benefits of pine nuts. My wife would tell me that I have no other life than pine nuts, although she knows that’s not true at all. Pine nuts have been around from the very beginning and we hope they stay around forever. Thinking of a year without pine nuts saddens me more than it should. I guess, being raised on them, I have acquired a sense of craving in the seasons that pine nuts are normally available. Ever since we started offering or providing pine nuts in the out of season months we have received many comments by our customers about how they now feel like that can’t go even a month without them. Perhaps that explains a lot of the large orders in the last few weeks that we had them available to order online.

Your friends and family tell me the same thing and with all their comments we only hope to provide more pine nut recipes in the near future or at least links where they can be found. I imagine as with every recipe, there was some person who began experimenting with pine nuts and tossing them in their favorite dishes and mixing them with other ingredients when they arrived at the recipes that are now used by people from all around the world. While talking to customers and friends I get asked about pine nut recipes all the time. Some people had no idea that pine nuts could be put in food. Some had no idea that pine nuts were even consumable by humans, the always thought that only animals ate them and that nature planted them just to look beautiful. Well if you didn’t know, now you do, pine nut recipes are available all over the internet, just search Google and you’ll find all the recipes your heart and mouth will delight in.

Toasting pine nuts is one of the best ways to release the great flavor that pine nuts have. Learning how there toasted and which ingredient to toast them with is very simple. For example, when toasting pine nuts I use just water and my favorite type of salt. Some people cannot eat salt, so all you do is skip the salting instructions. I begin by using a frying pan or my favorite cast iron skillet. I place that on the stove on high and put my pine nuts in the pan. I wait a few moments until I can see or feel the pan is nice and hot. Once the pan is nice and hot I will put one table spoon of water for every 2 cups of pine nuts. The water is used to allow the pine nuts to cook gently without burning. Many people use oil or butter to cook them, however that takes away from the great natural taste of the pine nuts. The water allows toasting pine nuts to maintain their amazing flavor and scent. The water also helps the nuts to attain a boil in order to fully cook it. As a matter of speaking, the more boiled you want your pine nuts to be (which makes them very tender), use more water. Some people will actual boil them in a pot of water for ten or so minutes and add salt to the water toward the end of the boiling and just eat them like that. They taste great that way. Others like to boil them and then toast them on the stove until all or most of the water evaporates off of the shells and eat them that way, which makes them nice and crunchy.

Now back to the basic instructions. If you’re a salt person than add your preferred amount of salt onto the pine nuts after adding the water, by doing so the salt will vaporize onto the pine nuts and by the time they are all cooked the water would of dried. One last thing to mention is that in order to get the pine nuts the best possible way, according to your liking is to sample them every once in a while until you get them the way you like them. Once you taste two or three pine nuts that are to your liking turn the stove off and move the pan onto a place where there is no heat exposure. If the pan is really hot and even smoking than you want to make sure that you continue to cool down the pan by mixing the pine nuts thoroughly and very often until you see that the pine nuts won’t burn or cook anymore. When toasting pine nuts you should remember that is takes only 8-10 minutes to cook them and that you should sample them often and even more often when they are near ready to avoid over cooking them. Simply take them off the stove once your done toasting the pine nuts. There you got it, toasting pine nuts is that simple, yet is well worth the short time and brings a flavor and aroma to your kitchen that you’re just going to not be able to wait much longer again before you cook them again.

Ever look online for recipes and come short of that perfect recipe. Many people online search Google for pesto without pine nuts. However, I’m here to ask, “Why wouldn’t you want pine nuts in pesto?” I mean, pine nuts make the best pesto. Excuse me, in my opinion they do. Pesto without pine nuts is like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich without the jelly or broccoli soup without broccoli. I know you probably think I’m exaggerating, but when someone mentions pesto sauce, it is very uncommon to not use pine nuts in pesto. Many people say that pesto is not a full word or is not complete without pine nuts. Alright, so of course pesto is a word and pine nuts can be added to it. But have you ever tried pine nuts with pesto and then tried eating pesto all by itself. Yeah, now you know what I’m saying. Pesto without pine nuts is the difference, in my opinion, between clam chowder with real clam muscle and artificial flavoring clam chunks in soup. Whenever my customers ask me about pesto, they already have the preconceived thought that pine nuts go in pesto recipes. As a matter of fact, I cannot recall at this moment a single customer asking me for a pesto recipe who didn’t intend or want to put there purchased pine nuts in with the recipe. Yeah, for sure you’ll find several pesto recipes, however, the number recommended and highest acclaimed addition to almost all pesto recipes are pine nuts. If you are not already a pesto and pine nut addict, or if you are a pesto fan reading this for the first time and have not tried pine nuts in your pesto recipe, don’t look away from this article when thinking of making pesto without pine nuts and give it a try. Yep, just through those pine nuts in there. I know you’ll enjoy your recipe, even more!

Thinking of pasta and pine nuts as a meal for my guest has been something I have done many times and just as many smiles times guest is what I have received. Pasta pine nuts have been an old family tradition ever since my family first began harvesting pine nuts over 50 years ago. The delicious flavor pine nuts add to almost any pasta recipe is comparison to those fans of chicken and beef pastas. Those who have grown up on pasta pine nuts may seem that they do not prefer to eat great pasta without pine nuts; to those people it is almost like making chicken lasagna pasta without chicken. Throughout the year of our family making this recipe we have come to consider that any pasta meal or dessert that has pine nuts will taste great 100% of the time. We see that pasta with pine nuts cooked to a soft texture will bring a creamiest taste. If you cook, roast or toast the pine nuts a little before putting them in the recipes and then placing the whole thing into the oven, this will give a crunchy taste and to many people, it will bring out more flavor of the pine nuts. Try pasta pine nuts in your next favorite pasta recipe. If for whatever reason you don’t like it and you’re a pasta fan, try them in another recipe or look up a pasta pine nuts recipe or pasta with pine nuts recipe online for a something great to impress your taste buds or even your friends and guests.

Are you looking forward to roasting your pine nuts? You know, roasting pine nuts is a tradition to many families around American, and to lots more all around the world. I have heard literally hundreds of people tell me about how they roast there pine nuts and about how they just can’t wait for them to finish the process so that they can fully enjoy their tempting flavor. I recall roasting pine nuts when I was a kid. My brothers, sisters, and I would fight over who got to roast the first batch. I was always so anxious to see them pop and then sample them. Wow, especially the first roasted batch of the fresh new season. Oh my, now that is just a taste that you probably only get in every meal in heaven. First step to roasting pine nuts is deciding how you want to turn out. Many people love them when they are just lightly cooked with a little crisp to them. I love the when there moderately cook and not too charcoaled. On the other hand, we have many customers, especially those used to the New Mexico Hard Shell Pinon, Arizona and Colorado Pinon way of roasting pine nuts that love them roasted to a perfect and hardened crisp, which to others they considered them close to charcoaled. Either way, they will taste great as long as they are not literally charcoaled. Roasting pine nuts has its benefits with flavor, however those who wish to eat pine nuts for their nutritious benefits will find that once the pine nuts are cooked any amount they have less nutritional value. There are many people as well that prefer them raw and not roasted. Although those people like the taste of the roasted pine nuts they enjoy the raw ones more. If you have not tried roasting your pine nuts than perhaps you might want to keep it that way, because many people who do trying roasting pine nuts and sample them will never want them any other way. Of course, to those of you who are a little less spoiled you might just stick with the raw one and not take the time or may not have the interest in eating them roasted.

Ever try to roast pine nuts? Did they come out the way you like them? Perhaps I can give you a few simple steps to getting the pine nuts to roast perfectly just the way you’d like them. First thing is first. Do you like salt? Are you a salty person or like a mild amount of salt? If you do than you’ll love to roast pine nuts. When you get that toasty taste and mix it with a little bit of salt your taste buds go crazy and you mouth becomes watering, craving more and more salt. You do eventually burn your tongue with so much salt, but is to the most part worth it. Many people like to roast pine nuts in the oven, however I find it near efficient and a bit less time consuming to just roast them with a bit of water on the stove. When roasting pine nuts with a little bit of water it always the pine nuts to come more to a boil which leaves a rich and tender taste and prevent the nuts from cooking to fast. One of the most important tips I give to my customers and friends when roasting pine nuts is to “Sample them often, until you get them the way you like them”. Using that little and easy to remember tip will save you hassles and allow your pine nuts to cook perfectly to your liking. Once you get two or three pine nuts that taste just the way you like them, turn off the stove and your set; just don’t let them remain exposed to heat, if the pan is still too hot, mix the pine nuts around until they cool down. By following those two simple steps when you roast pine nuts you will never go wrong and your pine nuts will not burn as long as you keep a good eye on them and sample them.

Pine nut kernels appear almost like a seed that has already been shelled. Other pine nut seeds are lighter color with a bit of a dark line in the middle which gives it the appearance that it is in the shell which is what makes the difference between a kernel and a seed. Many people when eating pine nuts think that they are the kernels and will grab a handful and toss them in their mouth and shortly begin spitting out the shells. The pine nut kernels are the actually interior of the pine nut shell. They are the edible part of the pine nut that has the rich and creamy or crunchy flavor and taste. Birds will actually shell the pine nuts to get to the kernel; which is a large portion of their diet during the first months of the fall season.

Do you like fresh pine nuts? I sure do! Ever really taste the difference between a fresh pine nut and a pine nut that has been stored in the cupboard or garage for a few months or even a few weeks? I do, all the time! There is a really big difference between those that are fresh and those that have been off the trees from the harvest for a while. You may also have realized the price difference in the pine nuts when the are fresh and not. Many people think that they are more expensive when they are fresher because they have just came into season and are more of a demand and that because of that demand they are pricier. Well, although that is a factor that is not the case. The main reason why they are cheaper when they are older and not so fresh is because they are going bad and the store needs to get rid of them.

People ask me what are best, raw pine nuts or roasted pine nuts? Well, I than ask them to be more specific because what exactly do they mean by best? Do they mean taste? Do they mean best in size or best in health? Depending on their specific question I would reply either raw pine nuts, roasted pine nuts, or even, salted roasted pine nuts. However, to the average consumer of pine nuts in general, meaning, out of pine nuts from all around the world, raw pine nuts is the most demanded form for this commodity. One major reason is that, although a majority of consumers like to put them or include them in their warm dishes, they like to cook them themselves, because they almost always have their own special way of preparing their pine nuts. So, in many cases, raw pine nuts are the way to go.

There is this pine nuts picture circling around the web that shows the cones with a big cone next to a small little cone. Many people ask, “What does it mean when there is a little cone next to a big one?” In some cases the small cone is a cone that died either from the weather or lack of nutrients before it could reach maturity. The simple answer in most cases thought is that the smaller cone is actually the bud for the harvest next year. There are many pine nuts pictures on the internet, however they a most repetitive results from the search engine and the majority rest are not significant according to the picture you’re looking for.

For example when we go to harvest, in the recent year the price of gas and diesel have been way up there, which in turn leads to more expenses for us the harvesters and in turn we need to raise our prices. The pine nuts in some stores cost much less than others because of the price that store received them at. To some harvesters, they cannot always afford to sell the pine nuts as low priced as their competitors and therefore their pine nuts cost a bit more. Either way, the pine nuts will cost in most part significantly more or less depending on where the pine nuts had to travel before being purchased by the consumer.

The price for unshelled pine nuts is substantially lower than those that have already been shelled (had the shells removed). This is of course due to the labor and great about a 35% loss in weight. Depending on the age of the pine nut and its moisture content, removing the shell can cause a weight loss of 40% or more, which in reason, will cause the price for unshelled pine nuts to be even much lower than that of the no shell pine nuts.
I personally like to buy pine nuts with shell on, or the shell on. The kernel maintains a much fresher and juicer taste when it has not been exposed to air. When eating them fresh you can taste the difference, almost between light and day. The only thing when you buy pine nuts with shell on is that you might take a little longer to remove the shell; however, many people find that to be enjoyable and a good sense of effort to appreciate the true value and taste of a pine nut.

Providing USA shelled pine nut kernels is now one of our specialties. We first began providing shelled or no shell pine nut kernels in the late season of 2009.

Many years ago when I purchased several edible pine nuts from China I began to easily see that pine nuts price is not based on labor, but on quality. I could tell in the store that there were pine nuts from more than just one country, such as Korea, Afghanistan, Russia, Portugal, and Italy. They all at that time were being sold as bulk pine nuts for the same price a pound. Ok, so what determined the pine nuts price at that time was not exactly the pine nuts nutrition or the size, it was the demand. Due to that specific store being located in a very diverse cultural area they had a high demand of pine nuts even Korean pine nuts or those pine nuts china almost all year round. From all these many different cultures a large or majority of the consumers purchased this commodity due to its pine nuts nutrition. Bulk pine nuts have always been known to be a bit cheaper or lower in price however those pine nuts specifically from China or pine nuts china have always seemed until the last recent years to have the lowest price. Korean pine nuts have always seemed to be quite moderate in price as well. When I get asked about my products, I’m first asked “Are these edible pine nuts?” Well I always get a kick out of it. I mean, who sells bad pine nuts intentionally and what pine nuts are not edible, other than the fossilized and burnt ones. Here on our web site at WholeSale Pine Nuts .com you will find one of the best pine nuts price for the quality. We hope you give our products a try.

Wholesale pine nuts is the place to get the best price on your favorite pine nuts, even the world renowned Chinese pine nuts. This popular commodity comes from the pine nut tree. Many people trying growing pine nuts with little success, due to their sensitive nature; which is more risky when one tries to plant the unordinary. Storing pine nuts is another thing that is sensitive depending on how long you wish for them to be preserved and on the pine nuts origin. The pine nut tree can be found in where the natives call the pine nut Mountains. Growing pine nuts outside of the pine nut mountains is costly than just buying them at Wholesale Pine Nuts. I have heard, but am not certain, that in China and Russia they plant their forests; which in the most part are boarding forest where the Chinese pine nuts are harvested. When it comes to the pine nuts origin you really need to know the basics as to where and when the pine nuts were harvested. That can tell a pine nut man a lot about the pine nuts origin. However, to keep things simple many believe that pine nuts are only found in their native land, since there has never really been a need to harvest or to growing pine nuts in foreign land.

Did you know that a healthy and natural way to lose weight is found within pine nuts appetite suppressant? The pine nut extract that derives from the kernel naturally contains ingredients that the body can use to maintain a healthy appetite. Pine nuts protein on the other hand works for building muscle. There are many different types of pine nut seeds that are found in a wide variety of pine nut hummus, which makes the list of the choicest side dishes in those fancy leisure places. People ask, “Are pine nuts healthy?” Well of course! Now to preserve them, the pine nuts storage must be dealt with wisdom so that they do not become rancid pine nuts. There are many types of recipes that derive from this favored food, recipes that include the famous pine nut sauce, or in pine nut cake and even a pine nut tart.

My use of this food is not because of the pine nuts appetite suppressant and neither their pine nut extract that makes pine nuts healthy, but because I love the taste and flavor and the family tradition; all the memories they give. I for one love the pine nut sauce along with the pine nut cake and a pine nut tart every now and then. The pine nuts protein, which makes up a large percentage of what the pine nut seeds consist of along with the oils, which in part might contain protein, is best when pine nuts storage is optimal. Rancid pine nuts do not contain the healthy nutrition that the fresher and cared for pine nuts do. Pine nut hummus contains a healthy blend of all these nutrients along with the other ingredients that are in the dish. Think healthy when you go next time to shop for pine nuts. Quality does indeed count!

Shopping for pine nuts online is just as easy as looking for pesto recipe pine nuts. you might think I am exaggerating, however, I’m not. First off, you need to find a good and reliable company, which can only be as good as how much you know about going online. Let me give you an example. Pistachio nuts is a very, and I mean, very heavily searched commodity, however, out of the thousand of online store, how do you know which ones have the best quality available and which ones really have a good deal. Most the time you can trust a friend to refer you to a site that they have already done business with. However, how many people, with all the other brand names of pistachio nuts, really know what a great tasting and high quality pistachio nut is suppose to taste like. Now going back to ordering pine nuts online, the same concept applies. Now you might ask why I compared it to searching for pesto recipe pine nuts, which is indeed a good question. Pesto recipe pine nuts is not a very clear and relative search in Google and therefore it may take much longer to find a relative recipe, especially from so many other options of pesto pine nut recipes. Likewise, neither is pine nuts nut. Now if you’re looking for instructions for cooking pine nuts you will find tons of relative basic significant information. Why is pine nuts nut no a relative search? It is simply because pine nuts nut is a reciprocal of its own name. Now pine nut recipe is direct and to the point and logical. Just as pine nut recipe describes the ingredients of it recipe, so does the title of its name when searching for a detailed or specific product or phrase. Cooking pine nuts is neither specific nor direct, but it is, accordingly and logically know to be asking how to toast or roast pine nuts on their own, without a significant amount or change in ingredients from its original form.

My parents now use pine nuts in all there favorite cuisine and salads, along with side dishes. I get asked by customers all the time how much pine nuts calories there are in a handful of pine nuts. People will try and use the pine nuts calories or say that pine nuts are expensive to not buy them, although they will pay two dollars for a liter of coke at the store, which will only last a few moments in taste. Do we sell pine nuts expensive? Absolutely not, we sell them as if we were pine nuts Costco; dirt cheap and great quality.

On the other hand, nature create a beautiful balance in bring pine nuts as they do not cause you to gain any bad weight; however the extra ingredients in the recipe might. To Top

Additional Pine Nut Information added August 25th, 2010 1:52 PM MT:

Eating raw pine nuts in shell is a very healthy habit, since you are not taking any of the nutritional value out of the pine nuts by cooking them or changing there chemistry. I recall back when I would only eat the raw pine nuts in the shell. This was only mainly due to the fact that I did not know how to roast them or bake them. Once I discovered how, I began using the two or three different variations of eating pine nuts. Although I love the roasted pine nuts in shell, I have to say that my ultimate is the raw pine nuts in shell. My friends agree half the time, others will say that the roasted are by far better. However, many will admit that when salting them, the salt can be a little too much sometimes and leave a pinenutholic with a burnt tongue. By far, to me, the raw pine nuts in shell keep you happy and never leave you regretting you ate so much. Since pine nuts are so healthy for you, just note that they will only do you good when eating raw pine nuts in shell. The raw pine nuts with no shell are not as fresh and do not contain as much nutritional value as a fresh in shell pine nut.

Have you ever tried shelling pine nuts? I have! It is actually quite easy, however, when shelling large quantities for certain recipes, it can be very time consuming and painstakingly frustrating. That is why restaurants or many other individuals or companies, such as those that make pesto sauce, will prefer not shelling pine nuts on their own. They will actually buy only pre-shelled pine nuts or pay another company to shell their pine nuts. However, on an individual basis shelling pine nuts for a quick snacks is much preferred, especially if the pine nuts are roasted with salt. Pine nuts, at least the Nevada and California pine nuts can easily be crack by using your teeth and or your fingers. Once you have had a moment of practice shelling pine nuts, it is no big deal to most people, and even easier and more worthwhile than the loved sunflower seeds.

If you have not already tried roasting pine nuts in shell than you might want to consider it. Leaving the shell on to roast the pine nuts is most preferred by individuals, because the shell allows for a more thorough toast throughout and within the seed. Roasting pine nuts in shell actually is one of the best way to bake your pine nuts and will bring out the outstanding flavor this commodity contains. Looking back now until the time when I first became familiar with pine nuts, I recall always roasting pine nuts in shell. Besides it being faster and more simple to do so, I think it is the way many cultures have always known how to cook pine nuts. As my family personally prefers roasting pine nuts in shell, we never prior to about a year ago, had roasted any large amounts pine nuts with no shell. However, we learn new things everyday and as a family that focuses on pine nuts a one form of business, we are always looking for new horizons and technique to improve what we offer to our customers.

When comparing the many different ways to roast pine nuts we run into the the most common way of roasting them. That for is know as “unshelled roasting” or “roasting unshelled pine nuts”, which is also referred as “roasting pine nuts”, since all pine nuts originally have a shell. “Unshelled” is the opposite of “shelled”, shelled meaning, depending on the way in which it is used, and action, being the action of shelling, or “shell being removed”. Therefore unshelled is “a shell that is not being or has not been removed”. However, when using a phrase such as “this is a shelled pine nut”, it refers to a pine nuts with the shell on. Ok, so back to roasting unshelled pine nuts, or pine nuts “with” the shell on. The majority of our customers, having been very familiar with the Nevada Pinyon Pine Nuts, have never or never had prior, tried roasting the pine nuts any other way, than unshelled, or “with” the shell on. To many people, roasting unshelled pine nuts is the most obvious and convenient way to roast pine nuts. To this day, we have many customers who have not even tried roasting pine nuts without the shell because they are accustomed and satisfied with what they have always done, that is, roasting unshelled pine nuts.

Every now and than when roasting shelled pine nuts some families will use an olive oil or butter to a specific amount, which adds an extra texture and flavor to the recipe. It is said or know that roasting shelled pine nuts, or pine nuts with no shell that in order to prevent burning a baking or frying ingredient is necessary. Many people will use basic standard cooking oil which leaves a weird or unwanted taste in the pine nuts. That is why is is very important that when roasting shelled pine nuts that you have an oil or other ingredient in which flavor you really do enjoy. I know that some people will use margarine in their recipe and call our company complaining about that bad after taste. All of this can be prevented by roasting shelled pine nuts with a much more preferable additive or oil.

Have you ever tried to find or buy pine nuts bulk and been given the runarounds and deceptive prices. I know in the past decades we have had many customers whom have been able to discover our company who said that that’s exactly what happened to them. When comparing pine nut prices in bulk to the retail price, you will be amazed at the drastic differences. When buying pine nuts bulk you will tend to save a great deal on if you just bought pine nuts every now and than. Especially if you are a pine nut addict and you can’t help but purchase them every time you visit the grocery store. Besides saving a lot by buying pine nuts bulk, you will actually save time and gas, because those of you who grew up on this commodity will know that it is not uncommon to drive clear to the store just to get your favorite winter snack.

I get asked a lot about any good pine nut substitute, something that is not so expensive, but that equals the greatness of pine nuts. I often would tell them that some people will stay with sun flower seeds or pistachios, while others will choose pecans or walnuts. Sunflowers seeds, happen to be a number one pine nut substitute, but not because of taste or greatness, but because like pine nuts when roasted, they have been known to help keep people awake. Now when I get asked if sunflower seeds is a good pine nut substitute, I will tell them “Unfortunately not.” Due to my opinion that nothing other than a pine nut can substitute for another pine nut.

Throughout my selling days I was confronted many times about pine nut shortage. People would sometimes go a year or two, or three without pine nuts being available in the stores, this resulting in me being asked so many times in a good harvest year about pine nut shortage. In which case I would refer to the year or years prior and than tell the customer that this year was either a prosperous year, that we had a bumper crop, or that, it was scarce, but that we were able to find them. Years ago when we would sell to the stores, we would get demands like crazy due to the pine nut shortage. However, years ago, even in a scarce year, prices were still very low, and it made a big difference as to our business needs, for we were making less than prior year, as cost were the same, if not more. Now, we have learned much and during a pine nut shortage, we take into consideration inflated prices and customer pricing limits, so to be fair for both sides, from seller to buyer.

What is pine nut production? Well pine nut production is simply how many, weight-wise, pine nuts or pine cones are harvested in any given area. I have seen in my life a wave of difference in pine nut production from year to year. It seems that in years that pine nuts are a bumper crop that there is a period of 2-4 years until there is another good harvest. Now, a bumper crop for pine nut production it appears has happened around every 6-10 years in the last 50 years that our family has been harvesting this commodity.

Pine nuts prices, as you can tell, have fluctuated very much in the last seven harvesting season. I vividly remember when pine nuts 7 years ago were easily and happily sold for a mere $4.50 - $5.50 a pound. Now a days the prices retail ranges from $8 - $13.00 per pound. Theses jumping differences in pine nuts prices more than likely shows an idea of the inflated price in the dollar. Since I am no economist I cannot say for certain, however, our prices have gone up simply due to a raise in our expenses, which include the raise in wages. I imagine that in order for any company to stay on top of things, they must first assure that there expense do not overwhelm there profit margin to stay in business.

Did you know that depending on the variety of pine nut, that pine nuts sale at some very interesting price gaps or differences. For example, the Nevada Soft Shell Pine Nuts sale for approximately thirty to forty percent cheaper than the New Mexico Pinon Pine Nuts. Pine Nuts sale for almost one hundred percent more in China than they do in the USA. This is mainly due to the nature in which the pine nut is provided, which is with the husk or shell removed, leaving more pine nut meat per pound. It is interesting to note that when USA pine nuts sale cheaper than in other locations, it is mainly because the pine nuts did not have to be transported as far as the others.

When pine nuts sales are low, it is not precisely a reflection on prices, it is a reflection on demand. It is common knowledge that after the holidays, in this case I’ll say Christmas pine nuts are normally sold out and not available on the market. However, we have realized that once people discover that pine nuts are indeed still on the market, pine nuts sales will increase. However, due to this being the case, that pine nuts are not much known to be available after New Years, pine nuts sales are never or have never been significantly high for most stores or companies in the later months after the Fall season.

The last time I had seen pine nuts on sale was not because the seller was having a “good day”, but because the pine nuts were not as fresh and demand was not as high for the less fresher ones. It makes sense doesn’t it. I mean, when a commodity is not so popular, especially due to quality, than the price cannot be raised, instead the pine nuts on sale are sometimes reduced in price even more. On the other hands, many stores or companies will place there pine nuts on sale to attract attention within the market and shortly afterwards raise the price substantially to make up for lost profits. However, If you can find pine nuts on sale, and they are great quality, than why not take advantage of that opportunity and get them while the price is low.

Ever since 801 pine nut .com arrived on the internet we have received many emails as to why we used that name. well, to keep it simple 801 pine nut .com is just another quick way to remember a phone number and a web site at the same time. As you imagine, WholeSale Pine Nuts .com uses 801 pine nut .com to promote there local access number or business web site that sells pine nuts. We are looking for other ways to promote our web site by using such strategies as a phone number and a domain name simultaneous on bumper stickers. Let us know if you found 801 pine nut .com on a bumper sticker, we’d like to know if there working.

We began using 801 pine nuts .com as another domain source for pine nuts since it was easy to memorize into a phone number along with 801 pine nut .com in which the singular and plural form of the word “pine nut(s)” often led to misspelling. Whether you go to our web site 801 pine nuts .com or 775 pine nut .com you will see that we are the same provider. There is nothing wrong with owning other websites that customers know you by. For example, 801 pine nuts .com has its benefits, because most people who type in the url address bar will almost always put the plural form of a word instead of its singular form. Now when is comes to using it as a phone number we imagine that most everyone knows that 801 pine nuts .com already has too many digits for a phone number, therefore on our bumper stickers it show 801 pine nut .com; pine nut having seven digits and 801 being the complete number with ten digits.

When our customers in Nevada ask us for a quick number to contact us at we simply tell them 775 pine nut .com and they immediately know that 775 pine nut is the number and if they wanted to go to our web site all they do is type in the .com after of phone number in the web browser and immediately they will find us. 775 pine nut .com makes it easy for customers to order and to get in contact with WholeSale Pine Nuts .com. Many times we will actually give out the wrong number to the wrong people or by accident. For example we tell an interested buyer to call us at “775 pine nuts .com” and they say “Wait, I want a phone number not a web site” Well we simply tell them to just dial the first ten digits or letters of that domain name and they’ll be able to remember and call us at that number. The same concept applies with 775 pine nut .com, which is the singular form. Since both web site addresses or numbers contain the identical first ten characters the customer cannot be mistaken when calling using that information.

I get asked by a few customers, what is the difference between having this web site or the other domain name, well not that there is a physical difference between 775 pine nuts .com and 775 pine nut .com, but that there is a technical difference, in which has all to do with peoples spelling habits and memory. I know this all seems like a bunch of nonsense, since all you want to do is buy pine nuts. Well than, call 775 pine nuts .com or WholeSale Pine Nuts .com and we can get your order out as soon as possible. Another thing to mention, in case none of this is making any sense, is that 775 pine nuts .com has the contact number of the company within the first ten digits of its domain name, being 775 - PINE NUT.

American Pinyon Pine Nut and Pinon Pine Nut Production Information for Fall Season of 2010:

The Nevada Soft Shell Jumbo Pine Nut harvest for the season of 2010 is looking to be approximately 50% less of what it was last season in 2009. Due to insufficient moisture and nourishment for the continuation of seed development in late Spring and Summer, many areas simply withered away and dried up. There is still expected to be a harvest of significant amount for the public to have there share of pine nuts. Expect a considerable price increase in comparison to a month through a year ago. On the other hand there is much prospect towards the 2011 harvest, which is looking very positive and good so far. However we still lack twelve months to determine its production.

Now for the New Mexico SouthWest Hard Shell Pinon Pine Nuts, the harvest for this year is predicted to be very low in comparison to last year. There are too many factors involved and all the reasons would be too many to list. The 2011 harvest for the New Mexico SouthWest Hard Shell Pinon Pine Nuts is looking very promising towards a bumper crop. However, we will have to see what happens in 2011. To Top
