About Ngali nut

Ngali nut, also called galip nut, is the edible kernel of a tropical tree nut used as food in parts of the Pacific. The kernel is typically pale and firm, with a rich, oily texture and a mild, nutty flavour. It is distinct from similarly named nuts and from oils made from its kernel.

Ngali nuts may be eaten roasted or used in cooking, and kernels may be sold whole or broken. Preparation and degree of roasting affect their texture and flavour. Availability is regional, and products can differ in whether they are raw, roasted, salted or otherwise processed.
