GET CRACKIN’, GET COOKIN’

Wonderful Pistachios are a very versatile ingredient. You can do almost anything with these amazing nuts. Let their buttery richness crust a chicken or be the counterpoint to bright citrus flavor in a summer salad, or even flavor a dessert cake all in the same meal! Even better, they're a good source of protein. Nearly 90% of their fats are unsaturated fats, and they're a good source of fiber, too. So Get Crackin’ and Get Cookin’.

          Popular Dishes

          Our pistachio recipes cover everything from fresh salads to rich cakes. Cultivated from our trees in sunny California, Wonderful Pistachio nuts have a unique, mild earthy flavor and range in color from beige to creamy yellow to green. They’re an extremely versatile ingredient found in salad and entrée recipes to baked goods and even ice cream. So Get Crackin’ and Get Cookin’.
