Bob's Red Mill Hulled Hemp Seed Hearts
What it is
These are the soft, inner kernels of the hemp seed, with the outer shell removed. They have a mild, nutty flavor and a tender texture. The hulling process makes them easier to digest and incorporate into various dishes. They are a versatile pantry staple for adding a plant-based ingredient to meals.
How people cook with it
Hulled hemp seed hearts can be added to both sweet and savory preparations. They offer a subtle crunch and a wholesome addition to everyday cooking.
- Sprinkled over salads
- Blended into smoothies
- Mixed into oatmeal
- Added to baked goods
You can enjoy hulled hemp seed hearts directly from the package or incorporate them into your favorite recipes. For smoothies, add a tablespoon or two for a creamy texture and a boost of plant-based goodness. When making oatmeal or yogurt, stir them in for added texture and flavor. They also work well sprinkled over salads, mixed into granola, or added to muffin and bread batters before baking. Their mild taste means they complement a wide range of ingredients without overpowering other flavors.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike whole hemp seeds, hulled hemp seed hearts lack the fibrous outer shell. This makes them softer and easier to chew. The absence of the hull also contributes to their milder flavor profile compared to some other seeds, allowing them to blend more seamlessly into dishes.

Home cooks seeking to add a plant-based ingredient to their diet will find these useful.
How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store the remaining hulled hemp seed hearts in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Refrigeration is recommended after opening to preserve their quality and prevent spoilage. Ensure the container is sealed tightly to keep out moisture and air.
