Learn More About The Pistachios Drawing
“The pistachio: it's just like our politics. When the two sides are divided, that's when the nuts come out.”
― Stephen Colbert, American comedian
Pistachio nuts grow on the small pistachio tree. It is related to the cashew. It lives in dry, warm places and is thought to be native to Iran.
Like many nuts, pistachio "meats," as the nuts are called, have a hard, protective shell. You won't need a nutcracker to open your pistachios, however.
The shells crack open and can usually be pulled apart by hand. Pistachios are eaten roasted or raw, baked into pastries or breads, or made into a light green ice cream.
