Description
Introducing DONACE Foods’ authentic African Tiger Nuts! These delicious tubers are not actually nuts but are edible tubers that are the size of a chickpea but wrinkly with a chewy texture and sweet nutty flavour similar to coconut. They were one of the first plants cultivated in Egypt and traditionally used as both food and medicine. Tiger nuts are rich in fibre, vitamins, minerals, and other beneficial plant compounds. They contain a variety of nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, phosphorus, zinc, and vitamins E, C, and folic acid.
Tiger nuts are also a rich source of antioxidants which are beneficial compounds that protect your body against aging and diseases like cancer and heart disease. They may promote healthy digestion in various ways. For starters, they’re high in insoluble fibre which passes through your gut without being digested. Insoluble fibre adds bulk to your stools and helps food move through your gut easily, reducing the likelihood of constipation.
Tiger nuts can be eaten as a snack or used in various dishes. They can be used as a substitute for almonds in recipes such as almond milk or almond flour.
We hope you enjoy our Tiger Nuts!
