1. Harvest time

Some areas have the habit of selling fresh walnuts, picking green fruits directly when the walnut pulp is still tender, and then peeling and selling them directly. However, if the fruit is to be fully developed, convenient storage must be harvested later, because walnut ripening takes a long time, later, the fruit can be solidified and the flavor is good. The early harvested fruit is dark in color and the seed coat is bitter after drying. The color of the harvest becomes lighter and the aroma is stronger in the later stage.

Walnut trees are relatively tall, and when harvested, they are often beaten under the tree with bamboo poles or sticks, so that there is no need to go up the tree, and the fruit will not go bad because the surface layer has to be removed.

Otherwise, it is easy to rot and not easy to shell. Rinse and rinse immediately after peeling, otherwise the moisture will easily enter the fruit. Wash with clean water many times until the water is clear. Wash the fruit, put it in the sun, turn it evenly, and then check that the diaphragm is dry, and the fruit can be preserved when it turns yellow.

4. Points for attention

Wash within three hours after peeling, and the nuts are easy to change color and rot over a long period of time. When drying, it should be in a clean place, not where there is dirt and other things.

Walnuts are suitable for late harvest, and the fruit tastes better, but those who like fresh food can be harvested early. Choose a safe picking method. The fruit can be stored after a series of treatments.
