Hand-selected from Afghanistan’s fertile growing regions, our Afghani Slivered Pistachio Kernels are prized for their vivid green color, delicate sweetness, and rich, buttery flavor. Carefully shelled and thinly slivered, these pistachios are exceptionally fresh and aromatic, making them a favorite ingredient in both traditional Middle Eastern sweets and modern culinary creations.

Unlike mass-produced pistachios, Afghan pistachios are naturally grown with minimal intervention, resulting in a cleaner taste and superior texture. Their bright color and soft crunch elevate everything from desserts and rice dishes to salads and sauces.

Perfect for chefs, bakers, and home cooks seeking authenticity, beauty, and flavor in every bite.

How to Use Afghani Slivered Pistachios ?

1. Afghan-Style Rice (Shola or Kabuli Palaw Garnish)

Sprinkle lightly toasted slivered pistachios over saffron-infused rice with raisins and carrots for a classic, elegant finish.

Tip: Toast briefly in a dry pan to release natural oils and aroma.

2. Pistachio Rose Milk Dessert

Blend slivered pistachios with milk, rose water, and a touch of sugar. Chill and serve as a refreshing, traditional-style dessert.

3. Pistachio Baklava or Cookies

Fold slivered pistachios into baklava layers or shortbread-style cookies for a nutty crunch and beautiful green contrast.

4. Savory Pistachio Crust for Fish or Chicken

Mix pistachio slivers with breadcrumbs, olive oil, and spices. Press onto salmon or chicken and bake for a fragrant, crunchy crust.

5. Pistachio Yogurt Topping

Top thick yogurt with honey, pistachio slivers, and a pinch of cardamom for a simple, nourishing breakfast or dessert.
