Hey, gang,
Been too busy lately to really go thru all the great material on this list,
but happened to catch sight of the "raw pistachio" words flashing by...
Plenty of genuinely raw pistachios down here in Southern California...some
even organic. Yes, you're safer if they're in the shells, but many growers
still dry them in the sun...it's cheaper. I, and some of my raw fooder
friends, like to buy them at the farmer's markets while fresh, not dried,
and still in the skins. They're fabulously tasty...very easy to remove the
skins, and, if kept in the reefer, they keep for months. Outside, if not in
the sun, however, they rot pretty fast (the skin goes bad).
Cheers,
Ric
