From its use in house and furniture building, where it is regarded as a true aristocrat among woods, to its pharmaceutical properties, every part of this tree has a valuable purpose. But did you know that a mere 28g of walnut kernel provides 7g of protein – equivalent to 13% of your recommended daily intake? No wonder it’s nicknamed ‘the vegetarian meat’. And as well as its popularity as a nutritious snack, the walnut has many culinary uses. Try some of the recipes in this book to find out for yourself!

” Since I was a young boy, I felt an attraction for the walnut tree. It is a love that is impossible to express or to talk about it. Once, me and my cousin we run away from home. Our guard, protector, for a full day, was our aristocrat tree that was growing in our grandparent’s garden, the walnut. During the years I read, made notes, and study about the walnut. My work rich to more than 3000 pages of information, most of them from my years at the Faculty of Horticulture from Iasi, Romania.
