And actually to open and release the seeds you don't need to put them in a fire. The Best way is to cook them in a some big saucepan with grass, because grass takes а pitch. Just put have pan a pine cones and top have a grass, flash a water in it and put on your stove on medium temperature, and cook them for 4-6 hours. after that flash out the water and pull cones out somewhere outside to cool down. Seeds going to remove smoothly and releasable, and its gonna live fresh longer time... Good luck! Hi Guys, I am from Siberia.

Only thing it is going to be hard to find them as we mostly have Tamarac pines and their cones don't get much bigger than a 1.2 inch. Oh well...it is a peaceful way to spend a sunday afternoon. thaks! Can’t wait to go out into our woods and find some of these great pine nuts!

I have been updating our blog at www.wildcrops.com/blog with info on where there is an American pine nut harvest. North of Salt Lake looks really good, together with Central Nevada. Thanks for linking in to our site. I will also post this on the wild crop blog. You are so right, there is nothing like a fresh pine nut. What people purchase in the stores (ALL shelled pine nuts are imports from China)are like cardboard in comparision. Have you tried roasting the pine nuts in the cone? Pinon Penny Hi,
