DEVELOPMENT & HARVEST
Walnut trees may grow as tall as thirty
meters, but on the whole, they may be compared to middle-size cherry
trees. Walnuts develop from the seeds of the tree. The green nuts have
the exact same color as the leaves. The green shell in which the nut
grows will burst open when the nut is ripe. It is only then that the
nuts as we know them will become visible. In order to harvest the nuts,
they are shaken from the trees by means of a special machine that also
catches them. After harvesting the nuts are collected and transported to
factories for further processing.
PROCESSING
The nuts are
washed and dried at the factory. The drying must be done very carefully,
because this will give them their shelf life. When the nuts are not
processed immediately, they are stored in their shells. Because, once
taken out of their shells, their shelf life will be limited. After
washing and drying, the nuts are sorted for size, stamped and packed. In
order to prevent perishing, clear film bags are used nowadays. When
the nuts are used for decorative purposes, the percentage of breakage is
quite important, for fillings, taste is more important.
