Pili nut is a popular native variety of nuts in the Philippines. It is a tropical tree which is abundant in the Bicol region. The fruit, has thin, shiny skin that turns purplish black when ripe.


Some bikolanos steamed the ripe pili fruit in a lukewarm water to soften the pulp. It is edible and often served with soysauce or bagoong (fish sauce) and match it with any viands for lunch or dinner.

Pili Nut


The pili nut kernel is the most important part of the fruit. When eaten raw, it is crispy and milky. But the usual concoction of the pili nut can be roasted, fried,or coated with sugar. It is a popular "pasalubong" of bikolanos.
