Facts About Pistachios

Turkey has long been known as one of the best environments for pistachio growing. The weather and climate make ideal conditions to cultivate and harvest these delectable nuts.

Our harvest runs from late August to early October, beginning when the pistachio trees are around 5 - 7 years old. The nuts are mechanically harvested, and are then washed, rinsed, and soaked overnight. Next, they are spread out to dry under the hot sun. Finally, the pistachios are salted again and dry roasted.

Let’s look at some of the facts:

  • We all know pistachios are a delicious treat, but the pistachio is also a highly nutritious food; rich in proteins, thiamin, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, calcium, iron, zinc, selenium, and vitamins A, E, B6, and K.
  • The Antep Pistachio is small and harder to open than ajar pumper Siirt Pistachios. However, the small size and hard-to-open shelled pistachios, protects meatier, richer tasting nuts.
  • Bright green and packed with flavor, the pistachio has a cheerful quality. In fact, in some countries, the pistachio is even known as the “smiling” or “happy” nut – indeed, when the hard casing splits, it can look like a smiling face.
  • Pistachios are one of the oldest edible nuts on the planet, with over 10,000 years of history. Some pistachio trees in the Middle East have been thriving for more than two centuries.
  • Originally from Southeast Asia, Asia Minor, Pakistan, and India, today, pistachio trees grow in parts of Turkey, Iran, Greece, Italy, and the US. Pistachios thrive in hot, dry climates. They can be cultivated in severe weather conditions where there are cold winters and hot summers.
  • Shelf life of the pistachio is one year, and moisture level is 1 - 2%.
