Description
Raw Hazelnut also known as cobnuts or filberts, hazelnuts are good eaten raw but the flavor takes on a more mellow, sweeter character when they are roasted. Like almost all nuts, they have a high fat content, which means they’ll go rancid pretty quickly if not refrigerated.
Raw as a snack, or added to muesli. Chopped and used in cakes or crumble toppings. Ground finely to make flour for baking.
Hazelnuts are a good natural source of vitamin E, which acts as an antioxidant in the tissues of the human body; they also provide appreciable amounts of vitamins in the B group, including B6 and folic acid.
Numerous studies have concluded that regular consumption of hazelnuts is advisable to prevent cardiovascular illnesses, such as arteriosclerosis, heart problems and hypercholesterolemia, and helps to lengthen life expectancy. They are also important for all those who have to make hard physical efforts.
