Pine Nuts

Fenyőmag (“FAEH-NO-MUG”) is the Hungarian word for “pine nuts.” While pine nuts are not a typical ingredient in Hungarian cuisine, they are often found at public food markets and supermarkets. The best-known brand is Kalifa, marketed by Gilan Trading Kft.

    Does anybody know where in Budapest affordable pine nuts can be bought? I know they are generally not cheap (but why? Comes from regular tree!), but the prices seen here in Budapest are bordering absurdity.

  2. C'est moi says:

    Pine nuts must be harvested by bare-breasted Tahitian virgins only during a month with the letter M, this is why they are so expensive.
