walnuts and walnut tree

    Walnuts are nuts that come from the walnut tree.

botanical information:

    Botanical name: Juglans spp.

    Common name: walnut

    Use the botanical name when ordering seeds (bulbs, etc.) or when looking up information in the library. Common names vary by nation, culture, and region, and sometimes the same common name is applied to different plants.

    The English word walnut comes from the German wallnuss or Welsche Nuss (meaning foreign nut).

    Family: Juglandaceae

origin:

    Origin: Persia.

nutritional information:

    Walnuts are a protein-rich food and an important source of amino acids.

    Walnuts are a source of calcium, copper, iron, and zinc.

    Walnuts are one of the best plant sources of omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids help prevent obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.

    One ounce of dried black walnuts has 1.0 milligrams of zinc, which is 6% of the U.S. Recommended Daily Value, according to the U.S. National Institutes of Health.

    Walnuts help keep the liver clean and healthy.

    Walnuts are a food that helps nourish the kidneys.

preparation:

    You can put a selection of nuts along with a little bit of olive oil into a blender and make fresh nut butter. Nut butter on bread (or in pita pockets) is a healthy “on-the-go” snack.

deities associated with walnut:

    The Romans believed that in the Golden Age humans ate acorns and the gods ate walnuts. Walnuts are therefore called Jupiter’s nuts, or Juglans or Jovis glans.
