Facts: What has a hazelnut in every bite?  Answer: A filbert!

Technically hazelnuts and filberts are the same nuts.  The hazelnut is grown in America and Canada whilst the filbert is found in Turkey, Greece, and Italy – all Mediterranean countries and is linked to Christianity. The Filbert bush blooms in February on St. Filbert’s day and the name “Filbert” was a local term for the plant. The name now extends to the nut. – simples!

Description

Storage: Keep in a cool place.

Preparation and cooking: Remove from their shell. Use  whole, grated or ground to flavour savoury and sweet dishes. Why not use them as the basis for a stuffing or chop them up with some dried fruits and scatter the mixture onto your cereal. In Turkey, a sauce made from garlic and hazelnuts is served as an accompaniment to shellfish – try it it’s not as wierd as it sounds! . Some recipes might call for ‘skinned hazelnuts’: if you don’t have any ready-skinned, just roast some hazelnuts in the oven for a few minutes; when they’ve cooled slightly, rub the skins off with your fingers.
