Local Black Walnuts: Part 2

 The husks

 Before rinsing

After rinsing...even though I wore gloves my thumbs managed to still be dyed brown
And below after I had smashed them with the hammer and dug them out with the sharp knife.

The thing about them is they taste like nothing I have ever had, certainly not like walnuts....so post 3 will be after they are all shelled and roasted and I make something with them....I hoping on making Chris and Skips grandmother' recipe for walnut pound cake.

More to come!
