What it is
These are whole, unshelled walnuts that have been naturally processed. They are a popular snack and baking ingredient. The walnuts are selected for their quality and are ready to be used in various culinary applications. Their natural state means they have not undergone any artificial flavoring or preservation processes, offering a pure taste of the nut.

You can enjoy these walnuts straight from the bag as a convenient snack. For baking, they can be chopped or left whole and added to cookies, cakes, muffins, and breads. In savory dishes, they pair well with cheese and are often used in pestos or as a topping for roasted vegetables and meats. Toasting them lightly can enhance their flavor and texture, making them even more appealing in various preparations.
How it differs from similar foods
