Ginkgo Nuts
Ginkgo Nuts are the edible seeds of the ginkgo tree, used in East Asian cuisines (especially Japanese and Chinese) in soups, congee, stir-fries and festive dishes for their slightly sweet, starchy texture. They are relatively starchy for a seed, providing about 36.5g of carbohydrates per 100g, with modest protein and low fat. Ginkgo nuts also supply small amounts of minerals like copper and manganese and some vitamin C. Traditionally eaten in small quantities, they can add a distinctive texture and flavor to dishes; however they should be cooked before eating and consumed sparingly because raw or large amounts can cause adverse effects in sensitive individuals.
