- Many of us lure for dessert and cannot wait to try a variety of these desserts coming in our way. What we must admire is, all these enriching and mouth-watering ingredients that have been long used in our delicacies aren’t really ours and it would be presumptuous of us to call them ‘indigenous’.
- Surprisingly, most of the junk foods like pasta, pizza that belong to western food culture, nuts, and dry fruits also in real sense are not ‘homegrown’. Nuts like Almond, Walnut, Pecan Brazil Nut, Pine Nut and Cedar Nut have long drawn history and originated in wholly different places.
- The initial cultivation of Almond goes back to the native of the Mediterranean region of the Middle East from Syria, Turkey, Pakistan, and eventually to the rest of the world. Similarly English Walnut originated in Persia and the traces of Black Walnut goes back to somewhere in North America. The Wild Pecan belongs to America and was considered as a colonial delicacy. Pecans were also grown in Georgia, New Mexico, and Texas. Pine Nuts have their origin roots in America, Brazil Nuts or South American Nuts were originally found in Venezuela, Brazil, Eastern Peru, and so on. Cedar Nuts which are from the species of Siberian Pine are ornamental vegetation that initially occurred in Siberia.
- A handful of nuts can bring health benefits and on the other hand, a plate full of fries can bring all kinds of diseases in our body.
GO NUTS OVER NUTS
As much as it is fascinating to establish a whole new diet system that includes some of the most nutritious and crunchy nuts, it is even more difficult to plan one that ‘has it all’. So trying a combination of oats with milk, honey, and almonds or walnuts can be our next step towards a healthy breakfast or our lunch could be prepared in an organic and healthy oil like the groundnut oil or the cedar nut oil. These nuts have the potential to reduce cholesterol level and improve our heart.
