Organic Walnuts Halves are a fantastic source of nutrition and a great cupboard staple for any health food fanatic. These walnuts halves look lovely as garnishes on cakes and pies and taste delicious in banana cake and cookies.
Walnuts are high in protein so make a good addition to vegetarian and vegan diets. Walnuts are rich in omega fats and contain a broad spectrum of vitamins and minerals. In the nutrition stakes walnuts win the nut contest hands down. If you don't like the slightly bitter skins then buckle up, because this is where all their antioxidant power lies. Walnuts are very nutrient rich and just one 28g serving is high in fibre, protein, manganese and copper.
Walnuts are one of the oldest tree foods known to man and their use dates back to 7000 BC. The ancient Greeks and Romans recorded the medicinal use of walnuts for a range of ailments. Today we have the nutritional knowledge to prove these nuts are a powerful health tool for any diet.
If you only use your walnuts for simple uses like porridge toppings then you may like to choose our walnut pieces.
