Description

What Are Brazil Nuts?

Nutrient-rich and delicious, Brazil nuts are harvested from trees native to South America. They are a good source of healthy fats, protein, fibre and selenium.

The Brazil nut is a large tree, reaching 50 m tall. It is one of the largest of trees in the Amazon rainforests and can live for 500 - 1,000 years!

The edible nuts themselves are found inside the fruit of the tree - they are round pods with a coconut-like shell. When cracked open, the nuts inside are found in orange-like segments. There are about 12 to 20 Brazil nuts in each pod.

How To Cook

Roasted Brazil Nuts

Brazil nuts can be eaten raw or blanched. They can be added to different recipes or enjoyed as a snack, with a drizzle of salt. These nuts are very crunchy with a creamy flavour.

If you've never tried these before, oven-roasted Brazil nuts are delish. Preheat the oven to 180°c. Place the nuts on a baking sheet and roast for 5 minutes.

Take them out, stir them around and place them back in the oven for another 5 minutes. You can eat them as they are or flavour with salt, herbs or spices.

Brazil nuts make a delicious addition to pad thai, trail mixes, pesto or as a nutritious topping for oatmeal, salads, or brownies.

Brilliant Brazils!

Fabulously crunchy - the crunchiness is rare for brazil pieces, as we have noticed from other suppliers that they can sometimes get soft. They are also better value for money compared to the whole nuts. All in all yet another top quality product, and our go to for our daily dose of selenium.
