Why Tigernuts Make Great Horchata<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tigernuts arrived in Spain from Africa with the Moors.  And they're used in traditional preparations of the classical Spanish drink: horchata.  White rice, less expensive and more widely available, has replaced tigernuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tigernuts are particularly rich in minerals like magnesium, calcium, phosphorus and potassium as well as vitamins C and E.  They're also a good source of oleic acid, a monounsaturated fat thought to boost HDL (good cholesterol) levels.  Tigernuts are also particularly rich in resistant starch which helps to build and support gut health, and may even play a role in reducing insulin resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n
