Pistachios

[lissomllama]

I was reading the cashew thread and since they're apparently related to pistachios I was wondering if 'raw' pistachios are really raw. Does anybody know about this?

gosh, no, I'm sorry, I didn't know they were related, I'll bet someone on here knows the answer though, we have a very knowledgable group of individuals.

No prob, thanks anyway, I don't know for sure that pistachios and cashew are related but I've heard it said a few times. It would make sense judging by the texture though.
