The flavour of pistachio is unmistakable, sweet and delicate, highly aromatic, adding a Sicilian taste to food. Like all dried fruit, shelled pistachios have a high content of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids that help reduce cholesterol and triglyceride levels and control blood pressure, thereby reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease. Pistachios contain valuable vitamins with their antioxidant action and polyphenols that have the ability to soothe inflammation and fight bacteria.
