I grew up in Spain, and roasted pine nuts were a treat! They would sell them with a little nail to help crack them. Some 25 years ago I brought a handful of them from a trip to Spain, somehow I made it thru customs, and planted them in the front yard of the house we had just built. Things didn’t work out like we planned and a little while later we sold the house and moved away. Years later I found out the new owner, unaware of the type of pine trees they were, had cut them and replaced with something else. I still feel bad for those little pine nut trees!
