Its shell is so hard it takes a hammer to crack; the kernel inside is resinous raw and buttery-sweet once roasted. Close to three quarters of its weight is fat, putting it among the oiliest of nuts.

Consumption tip

Even natural produce may carry pesticide residues. Wash fruits and vegetables under plenty of running water and discard the outer leaves of leafy greens. A short soak in vinegar water can also help reduce residues. Where possible, prefer certified organic or good-agricultural-practice products.
