Nuts & Kernels

Hazelnut Kernels (Shelled Hazelnuts)

Chef Select Hazelnut Kernels are shelled edible nuts from the common hazel, botanically identified as Corylus avellana. The kernels have a firm, crunchy texture when raw and develop a deeper roasted, buttery and nutty flavour after gentle toasting. Hazelnuts can be eaten as a snack or chopped, ground or roasted for cakes, biscuits, chocolate spreads, praline-style fillings, confectionery, desserts, granola and mixed-nut preparations. Natural differences in size, colour and skin coverage may occur between crops and origins.
