About Oil, walnut

The walnut is the wrinkled, brain-shaped edible seed of the walnut tree (genus Juglans), with the mild English or Persian walnut the most widely grown and the bolder, earthier black walnut prized for its intense flavor. Encased in a hard, round shell that splits into two halves, the golden kernel has a rich, buttery taste with a faintly bitter edge from its papery brown skin. Walnuts are especially valued as one of the few plant foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, and they also supply protein, fiber, antioxidants, copper, and manganese.

They are eaten raw or toasted as a snack, chopped into salads, oatmeal, and baked goods like brownies and banana bread, ground into sauces and pestos, pressed into a fragrant oil, and candied or spiced. Toasting deepens their flavor and tames any bitterness. Choose plump, crisp kernels or nuts in the shell with no rancid smell, and store walnuts in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer, since their delicate oils turn rancid quickly at room temperature.
