Delicious Australian grown pecan nut kernels! They are very tasty and are famous for their use in pies. Pecan nuts are also used in salads, cakes, biscuits, cereals and ice cream.
Pecans are a rich source of energy and contain lots of nutritional benefits. They are rich in mono-unsaturated fatty acid like oleic acid and are an excellent source of phenolic antioxidants. The combination of these two properties helps to decrease total cholesterol and LDL while increasing HDL, the ‘good’ cholesterol.
Pecans are packed full of phyto-chemical substances contributing to the overall antioxidant quantity as well as vitamin E, a range of vitamin Bs including folate and minerals like manganese, potassium, calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc, and selenium.
Storage
Pecans have a high oil content. By storing pecans correctly, you are able to prolong their flavour, texture and freshness. Store unopened pecans in a cool, dry place. Once opened transfer to a dry, air tight container and keep in the fridge. Pecans readily absorb odours from other foods, so if they are not stored correctly this may result in off-flavours. We don't recommend Pecans be kept in health food 'bulk bins' due to their delicate nature and storage requirements.

Pecans are famous for their use in pies. They are also used in salad, cakes biscuits, cereals and ice cream. Eaten raw or in your favourite trail mix they are a tasty and nutritious snack.
Pecans are very sensitive to light so store them in a dark jar in your cupboard or fridge to keep them fresh. They also readily absorb odours from other foods stored near them so keep this in mind too.
Pecan is a very large sized tree native to central and southern USA but now cultivated around the world including Australia like these ones. The tree bears catkins, a cluster of flowers which turn into fruits. The fruit husks split off at maturity to release a thin-shelled nut.
