Hazelnut
Difficulty
Some Stirring Required
A nut with a very important job — it's the primary ingredient in Nutella, which uses about 25% of the world's annual supply. That distinctive toasty flavour comes from filbertone, a compound that intensifies dramatically when the nuts are roasted, which is why toasted hazelnuts are a different beast entirely.
Rich in good fats, fibre and protein.
Origins
This nut traces its origins to the Black Sea coastal region of northern Turkey.
