Cultivation and uses
Pistachio nuts in the shell and out of it. The kernels are eaten whole, either fresh or roasted and salted, and are also used in ice cream and confections such as baklava.
The shell of the pistachio is naturally a beige colour, but it is sometimes dyed red in commercial pistachios. Originally the red dye was applied by importers to hide stains on the shells caused when the nuts were picked by hand. However most pistachios are now picked by machine and the shells remain unstained, making dyeing unnecessary (except that some consumers have been led to expect red pistachios). Roasted pistachio nuts turn naturally red if they are marinated before in a salt and lemon marinade, or salt and citrus salts.
The trees are planted in orchards, and take approximately seven to ten years to reach significant production. Production is alternate bearing or biennial bearing, meaning the harvest is heavier in alternate years. Peak production is reached at approximately 20 years. Trees are usually pruned to size to make the harvest easier. One male tree produces enough pollen for eight to twelve nut-bearing females. Pistachio orchards can be damaged by the fungal disease Botryosphaeria panicle and shoot blight, which kills the flowers and young shoots.
Almost all Iran pistachios are of the cultivar 'Kerman'. The tree is grafted to a rootstock when the rootstock is one year old.
