Deep Frying Open Pine Nuts

The birth of pine nuts begins in a pristine ecological haven. High-quality organic pine nuts are mostly produced in natural forest areas far from industrial pollution, such as Changbai Mountain and the Lesser Khingan Range. These regions feature a cold climate, significant temperature variations between day and night, and fertile soil rich in minerals, providing exceptional natural conditions for the growth of Korean pine. Korean pine is a long-lived and precious tree species that takes decades to progress from seedling to fruit-bearing, further establishing a "green barrier" for its growth. In the pine nut planting bases, people adhere to the principle of not using chemical pesticides, fertilizers, or herbicides. Instead, they employ biological control methods to combat pests and diseases and nourish the soil with well-decomposed fertilizers, allowing Korean pine to grow freely in its original ecological environment. Each pine cone's development is bathed in pure sunlight and rain, absorbing the essence of the mountain forests. When the pine cones mature in autumn, they carry the rich flavors bestowed by nature, awaiting harvest.
