About Pecan halves

Pecan halves are a nutritious and flavorful addition to various dishes, originating from the United States, particularly the southern regions where the pecan tree thrives. These rich, buttery nuts are packed with essential nutrients, including healthy monounsaturated fats, dietary fiber, protein, and a host of vitamins and minerals such as vitamin E, thiamin, magnesium, and zinc. Known for their slightly sweet, nutty taste, pecans are a staple in many recipes, from savory salads to decadent desserts like pecan pie. They can also be enjoyed raw or roasted as a satisfying snack. Pecans are heart-healthy, supporting reduced inflammation and cholesterol levels when consumed in moderation. However, their high calorie and fat content means portions should be mindfully controlled. Free from cholesterol and low in sodium, pecan halves are an excellent choice for a nutrient-dense addition to a balanced diet.
