SHILOH FARMS Hazelnuts have a crunchy texture and an appealing flavor that pairs well with chocolate and coffee. A great snack right out of the bag, hazelnuts have long been a favorite in desserts and pastries. They are also welcome in savory dishes, giving a nutty lift to meats, seafoods, and vegetables.

As with most nuts, hazelnuts are a great source of protein, fiber, and heart-healthy monounsaturated fatty acids. They are also rich in manganese, Vitamin E, magnesium, and B Vitamins (especially Thiamine, Folate, and Vitamin B6). 

To Toast: Spread hazelnuts in a single layer on a baking tray and roast at 350°, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes, or until the skins begin to break. While still warm, roll nuts up in a clean towel, then let them rest for 10 minutes. Gently rub hazelnuts back and forth to remove skins. Some bits of the skin may remain.

Suggestions:
1. Substitute for chopped walnuts in recipes.
2. Make homemade hazelnut butter by processing in food processor until thick paste forms; season with salt and desired flavorings (might we suggest cocoa?)
3. Grind hazelnuts in small batches to make a flour, which can be added to cakes, breads, pastries, and other baked goods.
4. Add chopped hazelnuts to cookies, nut brittles, and candies; sprinkle over salads or roasted vegetables.

Storage: To maximize shelf life, we recommend storing nuts in the refrigerator or freezer.
