Premium Macadamia

250 g

Macadamia is native to Australia, named after John Macadam, an Australian chemist, and doctor. Also called Hawaii nut, Queensland nut, maroochi nut, bush nut, and bauple nut. [wikipedia.org]

Its fruit, the macadamia nut, one of the two most expensive nuts in the world, has a shell that is hard to crack yet totally worth it for the goodness that is inside. For this pack, the hard work has been done so you may readily enjoy the good nut inside - round, small and plump, smooth texture and off-white in color with gentle yet rich nutty taste that resembles the taste of coconut. Not to mention, it is so good for your health.

Fun trivia: September 4 is the National Macadamia Nut Day!


Serving Ideas:

Simply bite into it for a real snacking treat. Great to use in desserts especially cookie dough, ice cream, and pie crusts, it can even be caramelized.

Macadamia nuts can also be paired with other bitter foods to complement the taste. They are even made into more healthy by-products such as macadamia oil, macadamia butter, macadamia flour, or macadamia milk. They are also a creative addition as an ingredient for baking and cooking.

Recipe Suggestion:

1 cup bread crumbs
