Poached Ginkgo Nut (100 g)

Gingko nuts are the seeds found inside the fruit of Gingko trees. They have a smooth, oval-shaped outer shell with a soft, chewy interior texture similar to roasted chestnuts. Ginkgo nuts are high in nutrients. They have about 50 calories per ounce and almost no fat. Thiamin, Niacin, and Phosphorus are all present in Ginkgo nuts, as are trace amounts of Riboflavin and Magnesium. Since ancient times, Chinese and Japanese people have used them in folk medicine. For convenience, these ready-to-eat poached gingko nuts have already been cleaned and cooked. Gingko nuts can be eaten on their own or in small amounts in soups, stews, Japanese steamed eggs, and stir-fry dishes.
