About Ginkgo nut

Ginkgo nuts, harvested from the seeds of the ginkgo tree, are a traditional delicacy in East Asian cuisines, particularly in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean dishes. These small, pale-yellow nuts boast a subtle, slightly sweet flavor and are often used in soups, desserts, and festive recipes. Nutritionally, ginkgo nuts are low in fat and contain essential nutrients such as potassium, phosphorus, and small amounts of protein. They are also a source of antioxidants, which may support overall cellular health. However, due to the presence of certain compounds, they should be consumed in moderation as excessive intake may lead to toxicity or adverse reactions, especially when uncooked. Ginkgo nuts are prized for their unique texture and are traditionally considered a symbol of longevity and vitality, adding both flavor and cultural significance to meals.
