Tips
Great ideas for purchasing, storing, and consuming brazil nuts.
- Buy Brazil nuts that are fresh-looking and unbroken. Make sure they’re not shriveled or discolored and check the packaging for an expiration date.
- Keep Brazil nuts in the fridge, an airtight container, or a sealed Ziploc bag.
- Soak raw Brazil nuts for 12-24 hours in water before cooking them: add two cups of water for every one cup of nuts, cover the container loosely with plastic wrap, and leave it out on the countertop.
- To roast a whole tray of Brazil nuts, spread them out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil and roast at 350°F for about 15 minutes: keep an eye on them—they burn quickly after you take them out of the oven.
