Garlic & Green Chile Pistachios (In-Shell)
Heart of the Desert Garlic & Green Chile Pistachios take our classic green chile nut to the next level with an added kick of fresh garlic. The Hatch green chile and savory garlic combo creates a medium heat level that’s balanced by the sweet green flavor of the pistachio nut. If you like spicy food, you’ll love these and won’t think they’re that spicy. If you don’t like spicy food, you might find these to be a bit hot, but you can always cool them down by mixing them with a handful of dried cherries—or a cold beer.
Heat index: 5-6

Nutritional Value: Pistachios are one of the most nutritious nuts on earth. They are nutrient-dense and contain all nine essential amino acids (EAAs), qualifying them as a complete protein. They’re naturally gluten and cholesterol free, contain very little saturated fats and no trans fats, and are an excellent source of fiber and complex carbohydrate energy. There is more potassium and iron, by weight, in pistachios than in any other nut, fruit, or vegetable.
One ounce of shelled pistachios contains approximately 10% of an adult's daily recommended protein intake, without any animal fats.
Storage of Pistachios: We recommend keeping your pistachios in the refrigerator or freezer in a sealed container. Kept in the refrigerator, pistachios will stay fresh for one year. In the freezer, they will stay fresh for two years.
