Stoarage

Nevada Soft Shell
The whole un-shelled soft shell Pine Nuts that we sell need to be stored in a dry, and cool location. Becuase they are sold fresh, they have mositure in them still. They need to "breath."  
If they are stored in any type of air tight, sealed container like a plastic bag, a sealed can, or a sealed plastic food container they will gradually go sour, then eventually moldy.
This is something we can guarantee
Also, if you do not plan on eating them right away they will dry up and loose weight. There are two ways to store them
1. is to keep them in a dry cool area in a paper bag as listed above. If you do it this way, they will eventually dry up and get hard.
2. is to freeze them. You can use any type of container. It doesnt really matter if you are freezing them. The only thing you need to be aware of is that after you get them out and thaw them, they will get moldy after a few days. The trick is to just thaw out what you want at the moment. They might have a different taste but if you roast them they should be just fine.

Please remember that these are a seasonal nut and the best time to eat them is durring the harvest season. If anyone has some other suggestions for storring the Nevada type pine nuts please let us know.
