Walnuts – a necessary component of a set of desserts. And if you often prepare a liver, pies and cakes with a stuffing or jewelry from nuts, in your house surely there has to be a stock of the cleaned kernels. However prepeeled walnuts need to be stored correctly, otherwise they can lose the original taste and valuable nutritional qualities.
Instruction
1. Walnuts are rich with fats. It impacts to kernels a delicate flavor and does them useful to health. However because of the high content of fats nuts quickly spoil, getting an unpleasant odor and bitterness. Therefore you shouldn't do large supplies of nuts, buying them for the future.
2. It is possible to store both the nuts in a shell and peeled. The last it is more preferable – you will be able to reject the damaged or deteriorated copies at once. Choose only the integral intact kernels – chopped nuts and a krupka are intended for the immediate use as spoil very quickly. Packing nuts for storage, make sure that they aren't spoiled – kernels have to smell, not have pleasantly foreign spots and a mold. Try them – the taste shouldn't give bitterness or mustiness.
3. The peeled nuts can be fried. It is especially relevant if you got kernels by weight. Pour out them on a dry frying pan and fry them within 10-15 minutes, constantly stirring slowly. Before removing nuts on storage, cool them.
4. If you plan to eat walnuts within 10 days, you store them in the closed glass or plastic capacity in the dark cool place. Don't leave them opened in rooms with high humidity – on nuts the mold can act.
5. If in the nearest future kernels aren't necessary for you, pack them differently. Place nuts in a plastic container, densely close a cover and put on the top shelf of the fridge. You watch that water or other liquid didn't get to capacity – nuts can grow mouldy. Can successfully be stored in such type of a kernel up to six months. Before the use taste them – if off-tastes and smells didn't appear, nuts are suitable in food.
6. Even longer – about one year – the peeled nuts are stored in the freezer. Inwrap dry kernels in food wrap or a foil and place in the deep freeze. For improvement of gustatory qualities it is possible to calcinate the nuts taken from the fridge in a heated oven no more than 10 minutes – they will dry up and will become more tasty.
