There is little difference.
Brazilian pine nuts refer to pine nuts imported from Pakistan, Afghanistan and other regions, while ordinary pine nuts mostly grow in the northeast of China. Brazilian pine nuts grow in different areas and receive different light, so the size of the pine nuts will be different from that of ordinary pine nuts. Brazilian pine nuts receive longer light, so they are bigger.

Both of them are rich in nutrients such as oil, protein, unsaturated fatty acids, calcium and zinc, which are very beneficial to human health after eating. 2 Brazilian pine nuts or common pine nuts are more delicious
Brazilian pine nuts are better.
Because the shell of Brazilian pine nuts is thin and brittle, it can be peeled off with a gentle pinch when eating, which is very convenient to eat; Moreover, the nuts of Brazilian pine nuts are larger and feel better when eaten.
The common pine nuts have a hard shell, so it is more convenient to eat after opening. Besides, the common pine nuts are small in size, and it is not easy to add other flavors when processing. Therefore, Brazil pine nuts are relatively better. 3 Brazil pine nuts are not so crisp, is it broken?
Not necessarily.
Brazilian pine nuts are also a kind of pine nuts, but the origin will be different. The pine nuts eaten in the market are all fried, so the taste will be crisp. If the Brazilian pine nuts are not so crisp, they may be wet after absorbing water. If they are not spoiled, they can continue to be eaten, and the wet pine nuts still have high nutritional value.
However, if Brazilian pine nuts are not only brittle due to moisture, but also accompanied by black spots and peculiar smell, it is recommended not to continue eating them, because the deteriorated pine nuts will be harmful to health after eating. 4 What should I do if Brazil pine nuts are not crisp?
Microwave heating.
pine nuts are not brittle when they are wet, so they can be heated in the microwave oven to restore the crispy taste. The microwave oven can evaporate the excess water in the pine nuts, which is also very simple. Just spread the pine nuts flat on a disk and bake them in the microwave oven for 1-3 minutes before eating.
When you store pine nuts daily, you should also pay attention to sealing them to prevent them from getting wet again. Pine nuts are also food that can't withstand high temperature, so you can also pack pine nuts in sealed containers and put them in the refrigerator for cold storage.
