Nuts! - Page 2

For the last 15+ years, I’ve been buying pecans, cashews, macadamias and pistachios from Sunnyland Farms in Albany, GA.
By buying large quantities and timing shipments to various family members carefully, there's usually some left when I get there for the holidays.
Superb quality and great people to deal with.

They also have a host of other products, like pecan halves coated with sugar & cinnamon or orange glaze, things with chocolate and dried fruits.

I agree... I LOVE NUTS.

Well then, Wendy... have I got a deal for you. I'm nuts.

I like all kinds of nuts. Almonds roasted with soy are good and recently I've discovered that if I buy raw pine nuts I can spice them up by dry roasting them with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Delicious!!! Only problem is...they're so small.

But they go great in a salad (which was what my original purpose for roasting them was).

Trail mix. Nuts are none the worse for an accompaniment, and Good Ol' Raisins & Peanuts -- GORP -- is a classic.

Trader Joe's offers a gingery mix called Ginger And Mangoes Go Nuts. Full of cashews and with abundant lightly crystallized ginger and ginger-impregnated mango. Lively! On the same shelf you'll probably find a trail mix called Matterhorn Mix, which features craisins and white chocolate drops with its peanuts. Somewhat improbably, it tastes exactly like a peanut butter and black cherry jelly sandwich.
