Fortunately, I am not allergic to any nuts. I’m leaving the pecans out because they’re not easy to digest - if I can get myself back ‘on track’, I will be able to add them back in sometime down the road.
I’m glad you can have them…down the road. One of my best friends can’t have most nuts, though I don’t remember which ones. Her list is long. She has a kidney issue.
If you ever become adept at smoking meats or cheeses (I am not, but hubby is learning), pecan wood is a subtle yet lovely flavor; my favorite wood to smoke everything with! Beef, pork, chicken, seafood, veggies. It has so many good uses.
We only discovered this a few years ago, but once we rediscovered pecan wood, we haven’t looked back. It is our wood of choice, and in cooking/baking, I use pecan for so many things. I skip the walnuts.
