These unique nuts are known as "Charoli," and have an almond-like taste with a inner flesh similar to that of a pine nut.
Also known as "Chirongi Nuts," these pea-sized dried nuts are slightly flattened and can be eaten and used raw or toasted or roasted before use for a more intense flavor.
They taste great toasted and salted and tossed in salads or in your favorite trail mix.
Charoli nuts are commonly seen in Ayurvedic and Unani recipes.
