These round, small-sized, natural Japanese walnuts from Gifu Prefecture, harvested in Reiwa 7 (2025), will be sent to you packed to the brim in a Yu-Packet Post box. ◎ Rest assured, these are the actual items for sale. You will receive the exact walnuts shown in the photos, so please check their size and shape. ◎ They are edible and cute, making them perfect for making accessories, and can also be used to prevent drying in plant pots. (Photo 3 compares them to regular walnuts; the ones in this listing are on the left.) ◎ The weight is 850g including the box. (Small items like the scale are not included.) ◯ Since they won't fit completely if put in a plastic bag, they will be placed directly into the box. The quantity may increase slightly, so please be careful when opening. As they are natural products, the size and shape vary. Some may not contain a nut inside. Please refer to the photos before purchasing. These pesticide-free, natural walnuts have been washed and dried for over a week. No bleach or chemicals are used. ◯ The expiration date is October 2027 (Reiwa 9). Please store them in a dried state. ◯ The power of nature. The slightly black, rough indentations on the shells give you a sense of the hidden power of the Japanese walnut. ◯ Recommended for people of all ages as a health food. They are rich in the now-popular omega-3 fatty acids and healthy fats for the brain, and are also effective for anti-aging. Recently, it has been said that they may have a positive effect on blood sugar levels, making them a versatile food from the natural world. ◯ Delicious! They have a much better flavor than Western walnuts (dessert walnuts). They are delicious in walnut miso, walnut soy sauce, yuzu mochi, or as a sauce for grilled mochi or gohei mochi. The shells are hard, so dry-roast them until cracks appear, then insert a knife or similar tool into the crack to pry them open and easily remove the nut. Further dry-roast the nuts to enhance their flavor for cooking. (Photos 11, 12) The shells can be used for gardening or accessories, making them (delicious twice over!)
