History
Pistachio cultivation is very ancient: some archaeological finds have highlighted its use since the seventh millennium BC in Turkey.
The pistachio plant is native to Syria but according to some studies the area of its initial cultivation also includes Asia Minor, Palestine and Turkmenistan. The name "pistachio" derives from the Persian pesteh and the Arabic fustaq, which are two onomatopoeic names and recall the sound of the opening of the shell when the pistachio is ripe.
The pistachio is referred to in the Bible when it is said that Jacob sent various fruits in homage to the Pharaoh, including pistachios. Pistachio was also known to the Assyrians, Persians and Greeks as a medicinal drug. It was brought to Rome in AD 30 and later spread to Spain. The pistachio spread
it gradually included China, Caucasian Russia and, for about a century, the United States of America where the plant was introduced by the Office of Foreign Seed and Plant Introduction.
The largest pistachio producer is Iran , followed by the United States. Followed by Turkey, China, Syria, Greece, Italy, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India. Iran alone accounts for half of the world's production, California about twenty percent. The American pistachio is mainly consumed in the domestic market while the Iranian one finds its main market in Europe. The Turkish and Syrian pistachios are very good, however consumed almost exclusively in the internal market, where the product is sold fresh and where it is used for the production of oil.

storage
You can store peeled pistachios in their natural state in cool, dry places, away from sources of heat and humidity. Here are 4 useful tips:
- The ideal condition for maintaining peeled pistachios is in a refrigerated environment. Natural peeled pistachios can also be stored without problems at room temperature during the winter season given the low temperatures. During the summer, on the other hand, it is advisable to keep it in the fridge or in the coolest possible places, as the increase in temperatures could favor the deterioration of the products.
- The ideal container in which to store peeled pistachios is glass. In fact, thanks to its constitution it is impenetrable to chemical and gaseous agents, and having excellent thermal insulating capacity it maintains the initial temperature for a longer time compared to other materials. If the glass is colored, all the better: using colored glass prevents the entry of some wavelengths of light (including ultraviolet light) and therefore some nutritional and organoleptic characteristics remain unaltered.
- The type of closure of the container is also important: an airtight cap ensures that the food is protected from excessive contact with oxygen which can lead to lipid oxidation and which can be essential for aerobic bacteria.
- The environment should always be well ventilated: by ventilating the rooms, the internal humidity that escapes from the window is kept under control, guaranteeing the right balance, which helps to discourage the onset of mould.
