Walnuts are rich in minerals and vitamins and especially in fiber. Nuts containing oils are “food for the brain”, ensuring its optimum function, which is why nuts are considered to be true stimulants for the brain. Almonds and peanuts are the most concentrated source of vitamin E. The reduced presence in the body of these vitamins is correlated with the installation of cognitive decline. If you consume at least 1/4 cup of almonds or hazelnuts every day, you ensure 50% of the daily dose of vitamin E.

What we need to know when we make recipes with nuts and peanuts:

Walnuts are an exceptional ingredient that gives cakes a crispy texture and a special flavor. Walnuts are not only used in cookies, but they can also be used in salads. Raw nuts are usually used in salads, but for extra flavor, my advice is to insert them into the hot oven for 15-20 minutes after you splash them in advance with saltwater, then use them in the salad. Walnuts and honey… Yes, they match very well. Mix 500 grams of nuts with 500 grams of honey and put this mixture to soak for 3-4 days. This mixture should be consumed as it is, as a simple dessert or it can be used for your future cookies with nuts that you will make.
