Pine Nuts
Pinus Pinea
AKA: piñón, pinoli, pignoli
Family: Pinaceae
Pine nuts are the edible seeds of pines. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization, only 29 species provide edible nuts, while 20 are traded locally or internationally owing to their seed size being large enough to be worth harvesting; in other pines, the seeds are also edible but are too small to be of notable value as human food. The biggest producers of pine nuts are China, Russia, North Korea, Pakistan and Afghanistan. Source: Wikipedia
