Tiger Nuts (Chufa Nuts)
Tiger Nuts (Chufa Nuts) were one of the first domesticated crops and Tiger Nuts have even been found stored in the tombs of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs. The Tiger Nut is a member of the sedge family it is actually a herb and has a sweet nutty taste slightly reminiscent of almonds growing in the ground much like peanuts. The Tiger Nut has many names; Yellow nut grass, earth almond, rush nut, and the Florida almond. in Spain, where it gets the name chufa the tiger nut is used to make a delicious drink.
Tiger Nuts are high in protein, calcium, iron, thiamine, and phosphorus. Perfect as a treat and a fantastic Carp Bait for fishing so I am told. Our Tiger Nuts are 100% organic.
