Diamond Walnuts

The delectable walnut ranks as one of the most widely consumed nuts in the world. Inside a tough shell, its curly nutmeat halves offer a rich, sweet flavor, and the edible papery skin adds a hint of bitterness. California produces the highest-quality English walnuts in the world; its crop accounts for 98 percent of the U.S. market and approximately 40 percent of the world market.
