As a supplier of Happilo Walnut Kernels, I often get asked a crucial question by health - conscious consumers and food businesses alike: "Are Happilo Walnut Kernels processed without chemicals?" In this blog, I'll delve into the details of our walnut kernel processing to shed light on this important topic.
The Natural State of Walnuts
Walnuts are a natural and nutrient - rich food source. They are packed with healthy fats, protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. When they are freshly harvested from the trees, walnuts come in a hard outer shell, which protects the kernel inside. At this stage, they are completely free of any external chemicals, just as nature intended.
Our Harvesting Process
Our Happilo Walnut Kernels start their journey from carefully selected walnut orchards. We work closely with local farmers who follow sustainable and organic farming practices. These farmers refrain from using harmful pesticides and chemical fertilizers on their walnut trees. By doing so, the walnuts are grown in a natural and healthy environment, ensuring that the kernels inside are pure and chemical - free from the very beginning.
Shelling and Cleaning
Once the walnuts are harvested, the first step in the processing is shelling. We use state - of - the - art mechanical shelling machines. These machines are designed to crack the hard outer shell without the need for any chemical agents. The mechanical force is precisely calibrated to break the shell while keeping the kernel intact.
After shelling, the walnut kernels go through a thorough cleaning process. We use water to wash the kernels to remove any dirt, debris, or loose shell fragments. Water is the only cleaning agent we use during this stage. There are no detergents, bleaches, or other chemicals added to the water. This simple yet effective cleaning method ensures that the kernels remain in their natural state.
Sorting and Grading
The next step is sorting and grading the walnut kernels. We have a multi - stage sorting process. First, the kernels are passed through a series of sieves to separate them based on size. Then, we use optical sorting machines that can detect and remove any defective or discolored kernels. These machines work on the principle of light reflection and do not involve the use of any chemicals.
Packaging
Once the walnut kernels are sorted and graded, they are ready for packaging. We use food - grade packaging materials that are safe and do not contain any harmful chemicals. Our packaging is designed to protect the kernels from moisture, oxygen, and light, which can cause spoilage. The packaging process is carried out in a clean and hygienic environment to maintain the quality and purity of the walnut kernels.
