Kashmir Walnut - Popular Dry Fruit In India - Edible Seeds - Akhrot
Kashmir walnut kernels, also known as "Akhrot Giri," are premium, naturally sourced walnuts recognized for their high oil content, crunchy texture, and rich flavor. Their sweet taste is balanced by a hint of bitterness from their papery skin. They can be eaten fresh or used in confectionery and baking. These brain-shaped walnut kernels are a rich source of energy, minerals, nutrients, antioxidants, vitamin E, and omega-3 fatty acids, which are good for brain health.
