A variety of Japanese walnut whose shell is heart-shaped and splits cleanly in two, so the kernel comes out whole. Its flavour is sweeter and less astringent than common walnut.

Consumption tip

Even natural produce may carry pesticide residues. Wash fruits and vegetables under plenty of running water and discard the outer leaves of leafy greens. A short soak in vinegar water can also help reduce residues. Where possible, prefer certified organic or good-agricultural-practice products.
