Georgia Pecans (Raw, No Shell)
Fresh as can be, we're not about to mince words over our raw Georgia pecan halves. Our premium pecans are mammoth in size and exquisite in taste. Pecan pie anyone?
Gluten Free Corn Starch
Gluten-free corn starch is commonly used as a thickener for sauces, puddings, and such. It tends to form lumps so it is usually mixed with a small amount of liquid to make a paste before using it.
Pecan Meal
Pecan meal is also known as pecan flour and adds a rich buttery element to pie crust, bread and more. Substitute pecan meal for regular flour. It even makes a great coating for fish or poultry.
