WALNUT (PREORDER)

~40 lbs Walnut aka "He-Tao", "核桃" Walnut is a type of tree nut that has a hard, golden-brown shell with a slightly rough texture. The walnut kernel looks like a tiny brain with extra-light amber to amber colors. Walnut skin sometimes has a slightly bitter flavor and the kernel is mild and earthy. Walnut is great for snacking, salad topping, and desserts. Walnut is available year-round. Handling Tip Selection The walnut shell is firm and dry. Shell has a uniform brown color without any cracks or discoloration. Storage Walnuts should be stored at 32°F - 36°F (0°C - 2°C) with a relative humidity of fifty to sixty-five percent and no mist. The typical shelf life is eight to ten months. Exposure to moisture or high relative humidity should be avoided. Walnut is sensitive to odor and should not be stored with strong aroma products. Walnut is not sensitive to ethylene, a naturally occurring gas that regulates ripening, and produces a very low level of ethylene. Walnut is not sensitive to chilling injury and may be stored at or below freezing.
