Review of The Art of Pecan by TexasRealFood
The Art of Pecan is an artisan producer in Dripping Springs, Texas that specializes in pecans. Pecan nuts, oil, flour, and smoking shells are all available here. The pecan oil that it offers is expeller-pressed in small batches. No chemicals, no solvents, no additives. Thus, you can expect that it's high in antioxidants, which explains the deep golden color of the oil. Likewise, the pecan nuts that it offers only has two ingredients in it: pecans and an all-natural seasoning. But hey, you're in luck! Recently, this producer launched a new product – the Activated Native Texas Pecans. These nuts are available in three flavors: Sea Salt, Maple, and Hatch Chili. So, you can easily choose if you want something savory, sweet, or spicy. What's with the "activate" thing? Interestingly, these nuts are soaked for long hours in purified Texas rainwater before dehydrating them slowly. As a result, the nuts are crispy and they have a softer tannin, making them more palatable and easier to digest. So, whether you need something to snack on or cook with, The Art of Pecan will surely help.
