Austinuts is an Austin based company specializing in dry roasting nuts.
This centuries old roasting method is particularly common around the Mediterranean.
Dry roasting requires specially designed ovens and utilizes only hot air.
As they contain no added oils, additives or preservatives, our dry roasted
nuts have a more natural flavor, taste better and are more crunchy than
oil roasted nuts.
Many
nutrition experts endorse the consumption of nuts as a valuable ingredient
in one's diet. Nuts provide a rich source of protein and are often referred
to as the "meat" of the plant world. They also provide fiber,
poly and mono-unsaturated fats (the "good" fats), vitamins and
minerals, are very low in sodium, and contain no cholesterol. Due to their
high nutritious content, nuts are a recommended snack for children and
adults alike and are the main source of protein and oils for many vegetarians.
Recent studies indicate that nuts possess
specific health benefits. For example, the consumption of almonds and
hazelnuts is associated with a decrease in blood cholesterol level. Other
nuts and seeds may be helpful in reducing the risk of coronary disease
and heart attacks.
Although
we are best known for our large selection of nuts and our unique process
of dry roasting, we also offer healthy snacks such as dried fruits and
trail mixes, gourmet chocolates and candies and many unique gift ideas.
All Austinuts products may be ordered in any of our gift packaging and
baskets.
At Austinuts, we are committed to the highest standards
in freshness and taste. Your purchase of Austinuts products demonstrates
your appreciation of quality. Whether you buy Austinuts products because
you are a "health-nut" or because you simply love the taste
of fresh dry roasted nuts, we are confident that you will enjoy them.
