How to choose the best walnuts

If you buy walnut kernels in shell check them carefully and avoid those with holes and / or cracks. If you buy shelled walnuts in bulk, do not buy those that smell bad or look like they have dried and shrivelled.

How to store walnuts

Walnut kernels can be stored in airtight containers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This gives a shelf life of three months, provided the walnuts in shell.  When the shell has been removed, you can store the walnuts in a refrigerator for no more than six months. You can freeze the nuts in an airtight container and use them within a year.
