Spanish Walnut size 36/38 Premium new
The Spanish walnut in its shell has a great nutritional richness, superior to beef as it provides 600 kcal/100g of proteins, polyunsaturated omega-3 fats, and carbohydrates. Rich in B-group vitamins, it contains minerals, calcium, phosphorus, and thiamine (ideal for the nervous system and the brain).
Its moderate consumption - especially recommended for people who perform physical efforts, diabetics, vegetarians, and those suffering from constipation - helps protect the body from coronary diseases by reducing cholesterol levels. Walnuts are the second richest food in antioxidants among all plant foods, according to studies carried out by Norwegian nutritionist Halvorsen in 2002.
You can eat them raw in desserts or salads. They also serve to decorate stews, go well with pasta and in salads. They are used to make cakes, pies, and liqueurs.
