A culinary nut is a dry, edible fruit or seed that usually, but not always, has a high fat content. Nuts are used in a wide variety of edible roles, including in baking, as snacks (either roasted or raw), and as flavoring. In addition to botanical nuts, fruits and seeds that have a similar appearance and culinary role are considered to be culinary nuts. ^[1] Culinary nuts are divided into fruits or seeds in one of four categories:

• True, or botanical nuts: dry, hard-shelled, uncompartmented fruit that do not split on maturity to release seeds; (e.g. hazelnuts) ^{[2] [3]}
• Drupes: seed contained within a pit (stone or pyrena) that itself is surrounded by a fleshy fruit (e.g. almonds, walnuts); ^[4]
• Gymnosperm seeds: naked seeds, with no enclosure (e.g. pine nuts);
• Angiosperm: seeds surrounded by an enclosure, such as a pod or a fruit (e.g. peanuts).

Nuts have a rich history as food. For many indigenous peoples of the Americas, a wide variety of nuts, including acorns, American beech, and others, served as a major source of starch and fat over thousands of years. ^[5] Similarly, a wide variety of nuts have served as food for Indigenous Australians for many centuries. ^[6] Other culinary nuts, though known from ancient times, have seen dramatic increases in use in modern times. The most striking such example is the peanut. Its usage was popularized by the work of George Washington Carver, who discovered and popularized many applications of the peanut after employing peanut plants for soil amelioration in fields used to grow cotton. ^[7]

True nuts

Corylus maxima, native to Europe and Western Asia

A slice of chestnut cake, prepared using chestnuts

A kola nut

The following are both culinary and botanical nuts.

• Acorn ( Quercus , Lithocarpus and Cyclobalanopsis spp.), used from ancient times among indigenous peoples of the Americas as a staple food, in particular for making bread and porridge. ^[8]
• Beech (Fagus spp.)
  • American beech (Fagus grandifolia), used by indigenous peoples of the Americas as food. Several tribes sought stores of beech nuts gathered by chipmunks and deer mice, thus obtaining nuts that were already sorted and shelled. ^[9]
  • European beech (Fagus sylvatica), although edible, have never been popular as a source of food. They have been used as animal feed and to extract a popular edible oil. ^[10]
• Breadnut (Brosimum alicastrum), used by the ancient Maya peoples as animal fodder, and as an alternative food when yield of other crops was insufficient. ^[11]
• Candlenut (Aleurites moluccana), used in many South East Asian cuisines. ^[12]
• Chestnuts ( Castanea spp.)
  • Chinese chestnuts (Castanea mollissima), have been eaten in China since ancient times. ^[13]
  • Sweet chestnuts (Castanea sativa), unlike most nuts, are high in starch and sugar. Extensively grown in Europe and the Himalayas. ^[14]
  • Note that the 'water chestnut' is a tuber, not a nut.
• Guinea peanut (Pachira glabra), like those of the related Malabar chestnut, the seeds taste similar to peanuts ^[15] and are typically boiled or roasted, ^[16] with the roasted seeds sometimes ground to make a hot drink. ^[15]
• Hazelnuts ( Corylus spp.), most commercial varieties of which descend from the European hazelnut (Corylus avellana). ^[17] Hazelnuts are used to make pralines, in the popular Nutella spread, in liqueurs, and in many other foods.
  • American hazelnut (Corylus americana), appealing for breeding because of its relative hardiness. ^[17]
  • Deeknut (Corylus dikana), grows in hot, excessively dry areas. ^[18] An occasional garnish used in Middle Eastern dishes.
  • Eastern and western beaked hazel (Corylus cornuta), native to the United States. ^[19]
  • European hazelnut (Corylus avellana), source of most commercial hazelnuts. ^[19]
  • Filbert (Corylus maxima), commonly used as "filler" in mixed nut combinations. ^[19]
  • Several other species are edible, but not commercially cultivated to any significant extent. These include the cold-tolerant Siberian hazelnut ( C. heterophylla ), C. kweichowensis , which grows in the warmer parts of China, C. sieboldiana , which grows in Japan and China, and other minor Corylus species. ^[17]
• Johnstone River almond (Elaeocarpus bancroftii), prized food among northern Indigenous Australians. ^[20]
• Karuka (Pandanus spp.), native to Papua New Guinea. Both the planted and wild species are eaten raw, roasted or boiled, providing food security when other foods are less available. ^[21]
  • Planted karuka (Pandanus julianettii), cultivated species, planted by roughly half the rural population of Papua New Guinea. ^[22]
  • Wild karuka (Pandanus brosimos), important food source in villages at higher altitudes in New Guinea. ^[22]
• Kola nut ( Cola spp.), from a West African relative of the cocoa tree, is the origin of the cola flavor in soft drinks. ^[23]
• Kurrajong ( Brachychiton spp.), native to Australia, highly regarded as a bush food among northern Indigenous Australians. ^[24]
• Malabar chestnut (Pachira aquatica), have a taste reminiscent of peanuts when raw, and of cashews or European chestnuts (which they strongly resemble) when roasted. ^[25]
• Mongongo (Ricinodendron rautanenii), abundant source of protein among Bushmen in the Kalahari Desert. ^[26] Also of interest as a source of oil for skin care. ^[27]
• Sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis), the roasted seeds can be consumed as nuts.
• Palm nuts (Elaeis spp.), important famine food among the Himba people in Africa ^[28]
• Red bopple nut (Hicksbeachia pinnatifolia), native to the east coast of Australia. ^[29] Low in fat, high in calcium and potassium. Eaten as bush food. Considered similar, but inferior to the macadamia.
• Yellow walnut (Beilschmiedia bancroftii), native to Australia where it served as a staple food among Indigenous Australians. ^[30]

Drupe seeds

A drupe is a fleshy fruit surrounding a stone, or pit, containing a seed. Some of these seeds are culinary nuts as well.

Smoked almonds

• Almonds (Prunus dulcis) have a long and important history of religious, social and cultural significance as a food. ^[31] Speculated to have originated as a natural hybrid in Central Asia, almonds spread throughout the Middle East in ancient times and thence to Eurasia. The almond is one of only two nuts mentioned in the Bible. ^[32]
• Apricot kernels are sometimes used as an almond substitute, an Apricot seed derived ersatz-Marzipan is known as "Persipan" in German and is extensively used in foods like Stollen.

  • Pili nuts (Canarium ovatum) are native to the Philippines, where they have been cultivated for food from ancient times. ^[39]
• Cashews (Anacardium occidentale) grow as a drupe that is attached to the cashew apple, the fruit of the cashew tree. ^[40] Native to northeastern Brazil, the cashew was introduced to India and East Africa in the sixteenth century, where they remain a major commercial crop. The nut must be roasted (or steamed) to remove the caustic shell oil before being consumed. ^[41]
• Chilean hazel (Gevuina avellana), from an evergreen native to South America, similar in appearance and taste to the hazelnut. ^[42]
• Coconut (Cocos nucifera), used worldwide as a food. The fleshy part of the seed is edible, and used either desiccated or fresh as an ingredient in many foods. The pressed oil from the coconut is used in cooking as well. ^[43]
• Gabon nut (Coula edulis) has a taste comparable to hazelnut or chestnut. It is eaten raw, grilled or boiled. ^[44]
• Hickory ( Carya spp.)
  • Mockernut hickory (Carya tomentosa), native to North America, named after the heavy hammer (moker in Dutch) required to crack the heavy shell and remove the tasty nutmeat. ^[45]

  • Bush mango ( Irvingia gabonensis ) has both edible fruit and an edible nut, which is used as a thickening agent in stews and soups in West African cuisines. ^[49]
  • Ogbono nut (Irvingia wombolu) is similar to the bush mango, but the fruit is not edible. ^[49]
• Jack nuts (Artocarpus heterophyllus) are the seeds of the jack fruit. With a taste like chestnuts, they have an extremely low fat content of less than 1%. ^[50]
• Jelly palm nut (Butia capitata), sweet edible fruit, and edible nut.
• Bread nuts (Artocarpus camansi) similarly have a chesnut taste and very low fat content
• Panda oleosa is used in Gabon in a similar way to bush mango nuts, as well as to extract an edible oil. ^[51]
• Pekea nut, or butter-nut of Guyana (Caryocar nuciferum), harvested locally for its highly prized edible oil. ^[36]

  • Heartnut, or Japanese walnut (Juglans aitlanthifolia), native to Japan, with a characteristic cordate shape. ^[56] Heartnuts are often toasted or baked, and can be used as a substitute for English walnuts.

Nut-like gymnosperm seeds

Pine nuts are edible gymnosperm seeds.

A gymnosperm, from the Greek gymnospermos (γυμνόσπερμος), meaning "naked seed", is a seed that does not have an enclosure. The following gymnosperms are culinary nuts. All but the ginkgo nut are from evergreens.

  • Stone pine, or pignolia nut (Pinus pinea) is the most commercially important pine nut. ^[64]

Nut-like angiosperm seeds

Macadamia nuts are angiosperm seeds.

These culinary nuts are seeds contained within a larger fruit, and are flowering plants.

• Brazil nut (Bertholletia excelsa) is harvested from an estimated 250,000–400,000 trees per year. Highly valued, and used in the confectionery and baking trades. ^[36] Excellent dietary source of selenium. ^[67]
• Macadamia (Macadamia spp.) are primarily produced in Hawaii and Australia. Both species are native to Australia. They are a highly valued nut. Waste nuts are commonly used to extract an edible oil. ^[36]
