September 4: Savor Sweetness from the Islands this Macadamia Nut Day!
Macadamia nuts are a global sensation! While associated with Hawaii, macadamia nuts are actually from Australia. Aborigines not only ate them, but used them as currency and sacred gifts. When English botanists discovered macadamia, they became popular very quickly due to their sweet taste. Macadamia nuts offer health benefits too: Their monounsaturated fatty acids may lower cholesterol.
Dishfolio food bloggers not only encourage eating these by themselves (they make a great snack), but they also use them to make a great addition to desserts. Put them in cakes, cookies, or on top of ice cream. For your family dinner recipes that call for breadcrumbs, use ground macadamia nuts instead; they make excellent filler for hamburgers or for breading on other meats. However you decide to use them in online food recipes today, just keep them away from dogs. They are poisonous to your foot-footed friend, but that just leaves more for you to enjoy today!
