Bulk Hazelnuts Organic

Are these hazelnuts roasted or salted?

Neither. The Kazidomi Vrac hazelnuts, grown in Türkiye, arrive raw, shelled, unsalted and with no added fat, from organic farming. The taste is milder and milkier than a roasted hazelnut and the bite slightly less sharp. Nothing stops you roasting them yourself before you use them.

Whole hazelnuts or hazelnut pieces: which to take?

Take the whole ones for eating, for a salad, or to control the size of the chop yourself: they keep better and break down under a knife or in a mortar. The Kazidomi Vrac hazelnut pieces are already broken up, handier for baking but quicker to suffer once the bag is open.

How do I prepare them before cooking?

Ten minutes in the oven at 150 °C toasts them. Rub them while still hot in a clean tea towel and the thin brown skin comes away by itself. The Kazidomi Vrac hazelnuts then crush under a rolling pin, a knife or a blender, coarse or fine as the recipe needs.

What dishes do they go in?

In a salad with a soft cheese, over roast vegetables, in a smoothie bowl, a homemade granola or a cake batter. The Kazidomi Vrac hazelnuts also blend at length into a butter. A handful, about thirty grams, is the usual portion for snacking between meals.

How do I keep a 500 g bag?

Somewhere cool and dry, out of the light, with the bag well closed or tipped into an airtight jar. Like every tree nut, the Kazidomi Vrac hazelnuts are high in fat and eventually turn rancid: a bitter taste or a sharp smell means it is time to throw the rest out.
