Santa Barbara Pistachio Company Raw Kernels
340.8 grams for HK$115, City'super
Unroasted and unsalted, these are pistachio nuts at their most natural. The lack of processing means they are creamier and less crunchy, but no less delicious. Because they are shelled, they're more convenient to eat - and overeat.
Verdict: great for cooking. Try grinding them with basil, garlic and olive oil to make pesto.
Krisca Pistachios
150 grams for HK$50, City'super
These California pistachios from  the self-professed 'nuts specialist' are oven roasted and very slightly salted. The result: a healthy way to enjoy the protein-packed, dietary fibre-rich nut.
Verdict: crunchy and full-flavoured. An ideal mid-afternoon snack.
Blue Diamond Roasted Salted Pistachio Nuts
170 grams for HK$47, City'super
This is how most people enjoy their pistachios - roasted and salted - but if health is a concern, take note: it contains 564mg of sodium per 100 grams, compared with 119mg for Krisca's and zero for the Santa Barbara Pistachio Company's. 
Verdict: tasty but lip-crackingly salty.
