The impact of thermal treatment for roasting on pine nuts from two geographical regions in Russia (Vladivostok and Baikal) was studied. They were roasted at 180 °C for 20 min in an oven. The aim was to establish the changes that occurred in the chemical (proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, ash, fibers), lipid composition (fatty acids, tocopherols, sterols, phospholipids), and physicochemical characteristics (peroxide value, acid value, iodine value, conjugated dienes and trienes) after roasting of the pine nuts. The results showed that the composition of the raw and roasted nuts differed (p < 0.05). Significant differences (p < 0.05) were observed in the oxidative stability of raw and roasted nuts from Baikal and, the content of unsaponifiable substances and sterols in the nut oil from Vladivostok. The roasting process influences the isolated oils from pine nuts as the chemical and lipid composition changes of oils from Baikal are significant (p < 0.05). Both raw and roasted pine nuts have high energy value, protein content, and good health benefits and can be consumed either way. Overall, it was established that the roasting of pine nuts had little impact on their lipid composition; the nuts could also be a source of lipid-soluble bioactive components and might have health-promoting effects.

This article presents a comprehensive overview of upcycling commercial nut byproducts (such as Brazil nut, cashew, hazelnut, macadamia, peanut (also known as a legume), pecan, pine nut, pistachio, and walnut) for food, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical applications. Upcycling nut byproducts, namely husk/hull, hard shell, brown skin, defatted flour/meal/cake, pine cone, cashew nut shell liquid, cashew apple, walnut septum, and dreg/okara, has great potential, not only to reduce/minimise waste, but also to fit within the circular economy concept. Each byproduct has its own unique functional properties, which can bring significant value.

Article Synopsis
- Nuts are nutritious but pose allergy risks; the study aimed to distinguish them based on their protein content.
- Eleven types of raw and heat-treated nuts were analyzed using a specific mass spectrometry technique to identify unique protein markers.
- The findings can help quickly identify the nut content in various products, including festive cookies, enhancing food safety for people with allergies.

Protein oxidation affects the high-value utilization of nuts as oxidative attack causes protein aggregation, thereby challenging their technological functionality. Herein, a strategy using homogenization-assisted octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) modification was proposed to tailor the structure, aggregation behavior, and digestive characteristics of oxidized pine kernel proteins. Results indicated that the ratio of α-helices to β-turns ranged from as low as 0.
