How to peel green walnuts

Everyone knows that walnuts are very nutritious and eating them regularly can improve brain health. When it comes to peeling walnuts, everyone thinks that they can easily open them by simply knocking them with a tool. This is true for dry walnuts, but for green-skinned walnuts, if you knock them directly with a tool, the walnuts can easily be broken and become inedible. So how do you peel green-skinned walnuts so that the juice doesn't get on your hands and you can peel them well?

Green walnut

When betting on green peel, you must make sure that the green fruit is fresh. Some green bark falls from the tree and is broken, leaving a layer of black skin. It’s best not to buy such green fruits. Because the black skin will affect the quality of walnuts, the black skin is one of the main reasons for the dark skin of walnuts. As we all know, a walnut with a dark skin is like a large black birthmark on a person's face, which is very unsightly.

For those who buy green peel online, you must pay attention to how far the origin of the green peel is from your home. Generally speaking, it takes at least 3 days and at most 5 or 6 days for the green-skinned walnuts to be picked from the tree and shipped to the buyer. During the journey, the green-skinned walnuts will lose moisture, and the skin will rot or break, which may result in the walnut shell leaving a dark skin. Walnuts with a dark skin can no longer be played with, which is a very sad thing. Therefore, when buying green peel, friends should consider whether the green peel has been specially packaged. Recently, some online stores have launched vacuum-packed green peel. This is feasible and friends can consider it. Generally, vacuum packaging can keep the green skin fresh for ten days, and will generally not affect the quality of the walnuts when they reach your hands.

After getting the green peel, be sure to be careful when opening it, and it is best to wear gloves. Because the green skin of walnuts is slightly toxic, if you accidentally get it on your hands, it will be difficult to clean and your hands will turn very yellow.

Wear gloves before starting to work, otherwise your hands will easily get stained. First, use a knife to peel off the green skin, but don't damage the walnut shell.

Use the same method to peel off the green skin of the two walnuts, and then use the wire ball to brush the surface of the walnuts back and forth.

Then be patient and use a small brush to brush it, using water to clean it during the brushing process, and be sure not to rub water on your clothes, because I won’t tell you that it will leave a brown spot.

When you have brushed it clean, use a crochet hook to pick out the green skin in the grooves on the walnut surface until all the green skin on the walnut surface is clean.

Then clean the walnuts with clean water. After the walnuts are completely dry, wrap them with toilet paper like this.

After wrapping, put it into a sealed bag and seal it. Wait for it to dry in the shade for a week before you can play with it.
