Questions & Answers

Black walnuts are the first thing you will taste. They are synthetic and plastic-tasting I like the taste of perfume. That's normal, or does it mean my samples were ?

This is the second time I have ordered these black walnuts. The flavor of black walnuts is unique and strong. There is no synthetic or plastic aspect to it - I understand why you would want "perfumed" if you were expecting them to taste the same as traditionally made (English) walnuts. Black walnuts have a stronger, more bold It was the only thing I ever had I grew up eating homemade black walnut ice cream made by my parents. A great time was had by all. They are far from popular with my husband. It might take a little while to get used to it, like scotch. The fish may be mackerel or cod.

Is Hammons Black Walnut shelled at the time of purchase?

I ordered black walnuts and they were shelled and chopped. Each year I make Black Walnut Cakes, and these pieces were just the right size.

Do these already have shells on them?

That would have to be the case. What's the worst that could happen if your black walnut shell cracked? A concrete shell that's how hard the shell is. These walnuts are delicious, but they are very different from English walnuts.

Is it normal for them to smell strongly of fish? license expires in the spring of next year. ?

It was my grandpa who cracked black walnuts in his workshop, and it filled the entire room with the smell of the nut. I was so nostalgic for the smell of black walnuts cracking in his workshop that I bought them specifically to remember him. I do not think there is anything wrong with your bag of walnuts but everyone has a personal preference, and the taste and aroma are different as well. You should check them out They are my hope that you will enjoy

It's the MOST AMAZING black walnuts I've ever had! The black walnut has been a key ingredient in my family's recipes for over 200 years now
5/5

I am descended from my great-grandfather A small grove of black walnut trees was on the land of my grandparents' cattle farm in northeast Kansas. The Hammon Black Walnut is a wonderful nut. Easily the best I've found in my entire life. In addition, the price is very reasonable. Is it easy to shuck a black walnut? It is not easy, and you should not think it is easy. We are dealing with a messy, difficult task. As well, the pieces were much larger than I had anticipated. Those fancy pieces by Hammon are very big for black walnuts. They are really big. There is a rich flavor to them and they are fresh. It has been reported that there is a stale taste to them. Stale cookies are not present here. That could not be farther from the truth. One who eats black walnuts becomes accustomed to a taste that is different from other nuts. The black walnut is not really crunchy at all. There is no rest for the weary - I'm baking to the max Besides cakes, pies, cookies, and stuffings, there are salads and ice cream as well. It was my pleasure to have baked my Lady Baltimore cake this past You'll find a pound of Hammon's Black Walnuts in it, along with fresh Maraschino cherries, frosted with a 7-inch plain unflavored icing It takes only a minute to frost. It has been a family tradition for more than 100 years and my favorite cake. Mary, thank you for Hammon's and Amazon Prime.

I like that
5/5

Despite their unique odor and taste, black walnuts are not liked by many people. The products I remember from the past are not as potent as these are, but they are still good products. The items are packaged in a clear plastic bag with a twist-tie on the top, and a cardboard box is assembled around them. The best way to store them is to keep them in an airtight container To prolong the freshness of food, keep it in a tight container in a cool place. Shelled and cut into pieces (not halves), they arrive shelled. They must be hard to shell because of how hard they are to open. You will understand how hard it is to shell black walnuts if you've ever shelled them before.

5/5

I received my 5 pound bag of fresh black walnuts in a timely manner. Their real, whole flavor is inherent in their freshness, as well as the fact that there are no In the event that you have ever been unable to crack enough black walnuts for a recipe, or if you have tried to eat black walnuts for the first time, you'll appreciate You must never mix up English or California walnuts with black walnuts, as they are very different. You can find them here, they are fresh and authentic. If you are familiar with black walnuts, then look no further.

The best black walnuts in the world
4/5

My preference over all other types of nuts The event is over. There are no stores in California that sell the products. I am from the midwest, where we always used black walnuts in cooking. My mother made all her Christmas cookies with black walnuts. It was her black walnut cake that was the best. We always had logs and cookies as kids, after Dad took us into the woods to pick a big burlap bag full of them. them home and allow them to dry. They were green, so they needed to be dried out. We kids would crack open the jars and pick out the berries to put in for cooking. You can tell how much I love them. However, California has no black walnuts and no one sells them. a rare find in most grocery stores) if you are lucky you may find a small bag there.

This is the black "variety
5/5

" I like the quality of the black walnuts and they are of a good quality. People who have eaten walnuts for a long time will understand that the "blonde" variety is totally different from black walnuts. Black walnuts are the most delicious, with deep, unsurpassed flavor. Blonde walnuts are fine in their own right, of course, but black walnuts offer the most depth and nuances. Do you agree? You are good to go, go crack some. Discover how nature has aggressively protected these treasures. Its protection is one of its most conspicuous. Walnuts that are "blonde" cost twice as much, but these are well worth it. It is healthy and delicious it can be used in any baking recipe, but (in my opinion) is best eaten raw straight.

Reminds me of good times past
5/5

However, note that these are black walnuts, which do not taste identical to English walnuts. Hickory nuts were the only nuts we ate growing up in the country, so this product gives me memories of those days. You should be aware that the flavor is different from English walnuts and part of the flavor is the strong shell and the small size of the pieces (I grew up cracking them as a child) so don't expect perfect bits of the walnut. Despite the fact that these tasted fresh, they should be stored in the refrigerator or freezer to maintain their Quite a bit of protein in there as well.

It's the same as I remember it
5/5

The reason I wanted to try these was because when I was a child, my grandparents lived in Ozark, Missouri. In the summer, to pick walnut meat from the black walnuts on their property, they would spend much of their time picking walnuts. Once we had determined that there was no meat in the walnut, we would spend HOURS picking the pieces out one by one. We were able to bring some home to CT at the end of the summer. Our goal is to make your life easier. It wasn't easy to crack those little babies and the meat was not easy to release! I don't know how it is done commercially, but they would not release We found it to be such a delicious treat that it was well worth the cost. I am transported right back there when I eat Black American Walnuts from Hammons. Those who haven't tasted a black walnut will find that they taste quite different than a regular walnut. The black beans are more oily and have a stronger taste than the green beans. You can't just eat a handful - they are too oily! It isn't possible, or at least it isn't possible for me. Despite this, I do like them raw, and usually mix them with raw cashews and almonds for snacking. Hopefully I'll be able to finish My purchase of these is based on my need. You won't regret trying them!.

It is both good value and of good The chunks of black walnuts here are relatively uniform in size
5/5

Growing and picking these at home, I know how hard they are to crack open and how tricky it is to get the nuts out - It's the tough ones they abandon too They bury what will produce black walnut trees in the future. This is definitely not the same as English walnut, which is softer and larger. The meat of black walnuts is more solid, more bitter, and more It has a sweet initial overtone when freshly cracked, but it fades quickly. The nutritional value of this ingredient makes it a great choice for baked goods. If you're making cereal, oatmeal, waffles, or pancakes, add the following ingredients This product was sized to be convenient for most people. If you want, you can just eat a handful. There may be a pleasant surprise waiting for you.
