Fresh local walnuts - thank you @the_clatford_beekeeper We're not sure of the best way to extract the walnuts from their green casings but a gentle tap with a hammer worked for us though for anyone else who may be taking this task on, make sure you wear gloves as they leave a nasty yellow stain on your skin as Amanda found out!! We'll be drying these out for a few weeks now before we start to enjoy them, adding them to our range of cakes and chutneys. Here at Oaktrack, we try to work with the seasons using ingredients either grown on site or locally wherever possible, so are always grateful for surpluses that our customers and suppliers bring us. #walnuts #locallygrown #inseasonnow #walnuttree #sourcelocal
