I love pine nuts. Obviously, they are used to make pesto. I add them to some pasta dishes, but not usually to red sauce dishes, for no particular reason. I use them on fish when I'm making a lemon butter caper type sauce. I roast them a bit on the oven first most of the time.

Are there other ways you use them?

Use then just like any other nut.

I make a roasted cauliflower with toasted pine nuts and golden raisins. It has a lemon caper vinaigrette. If your audience doesn't care too much for the flavor of capers, you can fry them first to subdue the flavor. It's pretty good

I also do a basmati rice, pine nut, and pomegranate pilaf with mint that's not terrible.

They make a nice crust for fish.

Lastly, use them in sweets like pine nut brittle. Eat as is or use it to top other desserts.

I frequently add them to salads, be it a side salad or a dinner salad with various proteins. I add them to flatbreads/pizzas that don’t have a tomato based sauce, and I make a rice pilaf that includes them.

I think they’d be good in cookies, too!
