NewYorkFirst.com: Bazzini Super Colossal Pistachios

A Fine Nuthouse.

Bazzini premium nuts and gift assortments make tasteful gifts every time you want to spread some memorable joy to groups of your family, business associates, clients, patients, friends, and social groups.

The relationship between the Bazzini family and their nuts has followed the food through many a cultural moment. Roasting in New York City since 1886, the company has been supplying Yankee Stadium with peanuts since its inaugural game against the Red Sox in 1923, and it is the nutroaster of choice for the world's finest restaurants and hotels, including New York's Plaza, Waldorf Astoria, and Four Seasons.

Take an Italian immigrant family from the turn of the last century, add skills in roasting slowly to extract more flavor, and you get Bazzini, still holding forth in the old TriBeCa neighborhood. Bazzini buys only the best nuts, and roasts to perfection.

Take Me Out to the Ballgame.
Peanut vendors with ridiculously accurate throwing arms fling bags of peanuts 10 to 20 rows away, sometimes across entire aisles. Now, the New York ballpark experience is available anywhere in America, a unique and nostalgic gift for the baseball fan in your life. Offered is an official "Peanut Vendor" Gift Box, filled with 6 official half-pound Bazzini "Nut Club" peanut bags, direct from Yankee Stadium. No need to wait for the seventh inning stretch.

Pass the Pistachios.
In this country, the pistachio is best adapted to the hot, drier regions of California's central valley and southern inland areas. Only the largest pistachios are chosen, then roasted in small batches and lightly salted to bring out their mouth-watering flavor.

Bazzini Famous Elephant Tins.
As far back as 1945, the generous Bazzini 4-lb. Vacuum-packed tins were a symbol of quality nuts in hotels and restaurants. The famous teal-colored tins are still being sent to the best kitchens in New York. Each can features an airtight plastic overcap so that it can be closed securely between snacking.
