Roasted pine nuts

It seems so very simple, but you still often see pine nuts that are scorched on one side and raw on the other! Not to mention those that appear to have been soaked in oil. As with so many techniques, roasting pine nuts is not difficult. All you need to produce the perfect result is a little time. Do purchase pine nuts with care: the various quality grades differ tremendously! Some of these have an unpleasantly bitter aftertaste.
