Best way to remove hulls is how country folk (i.e my family) did it. You put them in the driveway (but not under where the car rests!) and after 2-3 weeks of back & forth they're clean, dried, and ready to crack. It takes a very special hand to crack them too. They easily shatter into mush. Fortunately they have the most concentrated and funky flavor of any nut (of the tree variety, that is) so a little goes a long way. My family agreed that my aunt Dixie (!) made the best Black Walnut Pound Cake there was. I make one every Thanksgiving using our urban West Asheville Urban nuts.chris and skipnoreply@blogger.com
