Pecan nuts have a sweet, mild, nutty taste and are very healthy. You can eat these unroasted and unsalted pecan nuts straight away, but their also an excellent addition for all kinds of pastries. The most known dish with pecan nuts is the classic, american pecan pie. This pie combines the crispy pecan nuts with a creamy, sweet filling with eggs and sugar. Just like other nuts, pecan nuts contain many unsaturated fats, what makes it a healthy choice. Besides this, raw pecan nuts are very rich of zinc and vitamine B1. Zinc is among other things important for the immune system, and the smell and taste senses. Vitamin B1 (thiamine) is just like other B vitamins, essential for a good metabolism. It helps your body with converting carbohydrates in glucose, and with the digest of fats and proteins.
