Pecan nuts for decoration
Description
Pecan nuts for decoration have a delicate, buttery-sweet flavor and a characteristic wrinkled shape with a golden-brown skin that beautifully contrasts with desserts and salads. Their smooth texture and elegant appearance make them perfect for sprinkling on cakes, ice creams, tarts, salads, or meat dishes, and a brief toasting enhances their aroma and crunchiness. They are rich in monounsaturated fats, fiber, magnesium, vitamin E, and antioxidants, which promote heart health and help control cholesterol levels, although they are also calorie-dense and should be used in moderation. They should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place; for longer freshness, it's best to keep them in the refrigerator or freeze them to prevent the oils from going rancid.
