About Green Peeled Pistachio Kernels

Green peeled pistachio kernels are Antep fıstığı kernels with the thin inner skin removed to reveal the vivid emerald-green flesh beneath — the most premium and visually striking form of the Turkish pistachio. Peeling exposes the deepest colour, which is why this grade is the standard for high-end baklava, patisserie and decorative work where appearance is everything.

This is the pistachio of Gaziantep's world-famous baklava: sprinkled as a bright green crumb between pastry layers, used whole in premium confectionery, and dusted over desserts, chocolates and ice cream for a signature look. Because peeling is labour-intensive and selects only the greenest kernels, green peeled pistachios sit at the top of the price ladder and are bought by patisseries, confectioners and premium food manufacturers.

Turkish green peeled kernels are supplied whole or as green crumb/nibs, in bulk cartons and vacuum packs, conventional or organic, processed under BRC/IFS-audited systems with intensive colour sorting, metal detection and per-lot aflatoxin testing.
