Anna and Sarah Large Oregon Hazelnuts in Shell — 5 lb Box, Whole Raw Filberts for Baking & Snacking

Anna and Sarah Large Oregon Hazelnuts in Shell are whole, raw filberts packed in a 5-pound box for long-lasting freshness and versatile kitchen use.

These whole hazelnuts are harvested and packed in the United States and delivered in their shells to preserve flavor and extend shelf life. The large Oregon filberts offer a crisp shell and a sweet, creamy kernel suitable for snacking, baking, or adding texture to savory dishes. Sold in bulk, this 5 lb box is designed for home bakers, small businesses, and anyone who prefers to crack their own nuts for maximum freshness.

What makes these Oregon hazelnuts different from shelled nuts?

Keeping hazelnuts in the shell protects the kernel from light, air, and moisture, which helps maintain their natural aroma and crunch longer than pre-shelled nuts. Shelling at home also lets you choose the exact portion you need and check each nut for quality.

• In-shell format preserves natural oils and texture until opening.
• Large filbert size yields a meatier kernel per nut.
• Less handling and processing compared with shelled varieties.

How can I use these hazelnuts in cooking and baking?

Whole-shelled hazelnuts are versatile: roast them for deeper flavor, chop for toppings, grind into meal, or use whole in holiday recipes. Their sweet, slightly buttery taste complements chocolates, baked goods, salads, and grain bowls.

• Roast 10–12 minutes at 350°F to enhance aroma before using.
• Grind into hazelnut meal for cakes, crusts, and coatings.
• Toast and add to granola, salads, or as an ice cream garnish.

How should I store and keep these hazelnuts fresh?

Because these filberts are sold in-shell, they resist rancidity better than exposed kernels but still benefit from cool, dry storage. After opening the box, transfer nuts to an airtight container or heavy-duty sealed bag and refrigerate for extended shelf life.

• Keep in a cool, dry pantry for short-term storage.
• Refrigerate or freeze in sealed packaging to prolong freshness for months.
• Inspect shells before use and discard any with off odors or visible mold.

Where do these hazelnuts come from and what quality checks are performed?

These hazelnuts are grown and packed in the United States, sourced from Oregon farms known for filbert production. Packing in-shell reduces processing steps and helps maintain consistent size and quality checks before shipment.

• Grown and packaged in the U.S., with regional sourcing in Oregon.
• Sorted for size to deliver consistently large filberts in each box.
• Packed in bulk for foodservice, baking, and household use.
