Are pine and pinon nuts the same thing?
They are pine nuts, but from a different variety of pine tree… The Two-needle Pinon which is native to North America. I believe pinon nuts are also called Indian Nuts. That’s Native American Indians… not South Asian Indians. Also, looking at your website, there are the pine nuts from the Navajo… which is an Indian (Native American) tribe. Edit… Just found this website which sort of jives with what I mentioned above…. http://www.nutsonline.
