A whole sack of pine nuts recently came into my possession. They were all sealed very neatly in plastic ziplock bags, but there are way too many for me to eat in any reasonable length of time. Hence the question, under these conditions, how long would these pine nuts stay fresh? Do pine nuts even go bad? Your thoughts please.

Yes, any kind of nut will go bad. The oils in the nut will go rancid, among other things. They're fine until they taste bad, pretty much--but that's probably a couple of months if you don't freeze them. You can probably squeeze 6 months-a year or two if you freeze them.

Can You Freeze Pine Nuts

Pine Nuts are a key ingredient in Pesto sauce..... You could certainly scare up some basil, garlic, parmesan cheese, olive oil and make a good sized batch. Be sure to season with salt & pepper..... its fairly straight forward, grate the cheese and combine everything except the oil in a food processor and pulse a few times, then drizzle in a little oil check the seasoning again and you're basically done. It makes a nice gift, freezes well, and can be used on pizza, pasta, anything really. Hope this helps, and yes, they will go bad, but like the other person mentioned, you can slow this down by freezing them.
