About this item
There are good nuts and there are great nuts, but you have found the ultimate nut - the
American black walnut. Not only tasty, they are good for you too. Black walnuts are low in
saturated fats, have no cholesterol, and are high in polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats
(the good fats), which can help lower "bad" cholesterol levels. Black walnuts also contain iron
and other minerals and fiber.
Cooking with black walnuts is a great way to add flavor to traditional treats like cookies,
cakes, brownies and fudge. Use them to add zest to other foods like salads, chicken, fish,
green beans and wild rice. Black walnuts are also a superb way to enhance the texture and taste
in vegetarian recipes.
