You can dry roast them but then you might as well buy the dried nuts.Haalohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03291206056540101155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20759216.post-24654526540981522682008-03-16T11:54:00.000+01:002008-03-16T11:54:00.000+01:00Picked some fresh Pistachios up today, was surpris...Picked some fresh Pistachios up today, was surprised to see the fleshy outer! very damp nut. Was wondering if they are like coffee beans whereby roasting brings out the fuller flavours.

I've always liked pistachios and they are very versatile - you can use them in both sweet and savoury dishes or simply munch away. But I can't get them fresh - ours tend to come dried and from Iran.Trighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01386804439578267100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20759216.post-49551811100339640372007-03-04T15:35:00.001+01:002007-03-04T15:35:00.001+01:00Very cool post!
