About Nuts, walnuts, english

Walnuts are the wrinkled, brain-shaped nuts with a rich, slightly bitter flavor and a satisfying crunch. Eaten raw or toasted, chopped into salads and bakes, or pressed into oil, they're as at home in a savory dish as in a dessert.

They stand out among nuts for being one of the best plant sources of omega-3 fats, specifically ALA, alongside the heart-healthy unsaturated fats common to nuts, plus protein, fiber, manganese, copper and a strong dose of antioxidants. Like all nuts they're calorie-dense, so a small handful is the right serving.

That omega-3 content gives walnuts a particular place in heart-healthy eating, and their rich, earthy flavor makes them a genuine pleasure rather than a chore to add to a diet.
