Explanation:
peanuts - arachidi
walnuts - noci
cashews- anacardi
pine nuts- pinoli
miso- miso
pecans- pecans
pistachios- pistacchi
I don't think we have an equivalent of pecans and miso in Italian.
As far as the term "nut" is concerned, it's more of a general term translated as "noce/nocciola", (for example- chocolate with nuts).
