Crunchy, Flavorful Black Walnuts

When you want an intense nutty flavor paired with an amazingly satisfying crunch, few things compare to our big, rich black walnuts. These nuts arrive shelled and in chunky pieces that make one of the most decadent ice cream toppings. Our customers also love to eat these walnuts in salads, as an ingredient in baked goods or just by the raw handful.

If you want to add the luxurious flavor of these nuts to your favorite recipes that call for ordinary English walnuts, do so carefully. Black walnuts are much more potent, so it's best to either reduce the amount of nuts called for in the recipe or use a mixture of both walnut varieties.

Hand-Harvested, Shelled Black Walnuts

Getting these nuts to customers is truly a labor of love, as nearly every step in the cultivation, harvesting, hulling and final preparation of shelled black walnuts is still done by hand. The nuts fall naturally from the trees in late autumn, where they must be harvested directly from the forest floor. The green, messy hulls are then removed, the nuts are dried, the extra-tough nutshells are cracked and, finally, these delicacies can be plucked out.

When we buy black walnuts, we love to think about all the hands-on effort that it took to bring them to us. We hope you do, too!

Health Tips

Black Walnut Health Tips

If you're watching your cholesterol, these nuts can help make your diet a whole lot tastier. Black walnuts are very low in saturated fat, yet very high in polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, which are the good fats that can lower bad cholesterol while maintaining good cholesterol.

Adding a few of these nuts to any dish can help boost its protein, iron and fiber content without adding sugar. They also make a nutritionally similar substitute for the tree nuts that are enjoyed in the now-popular and healthy Mediterranean diets.

You can even eat black walnuts for better overall cardiovascular health, as they contain large amounts of omega-3 fats, which help support cardiovascular function.

“We have been searching for these black walnuts and could not find "fresh" ones anywhere. My grandmother absolutely LOVES them!! Will definitely be a returning customer.”

Mila, Jersey City, NJ November 20, 2012

“Hey you nuts: thanks so much for the speedy delivery. I can't wait to dig into that beautiful black walnut cake in the oven. Keep up the good work. The nuts are wonderful.


Inace, Clarkston, MI November 19, 2012

“You chose the right name. You people are NUTS! I think that I ordered just to see if black walnuts could really be purchased at that price. I went through the process of hulling and drying the nuts this year only to find that this crop was not good for whatever reason. After finding your website, I will not go through that process again. It would have taken me weeks to just pick out that many walnuts! Ship time unreal and just as you promised. Great job. Keep at it.”

“Yippppppeeeee! I got my order of 2 bags of the delicious, decadent black walnuts today, only a few short hours after placing my order late yesterday afternoon. (it's unbelievable how fast you get your order)! The black walnuts these "nutty folks" offer here at NUTS.com are FANTASTIC!..They are so fresh, flavorful and totally addicting! Try these wonderful nuts folks, you'll love them! (I sure as heck do!) Thanks again, to all the NUTS at NUTS.com!”

“I received the black walnuts today, can't wait to try them out in my black walnut cake this weekend. Thanks for the prompt service and delivery.

Dionysia E White, Rosedale, Maryland November 14, 2012

“You "nutty" people have the fastest shipping I have EVER experienced, and the black walnuts are wonderful!! I need them for cakes I make at Christmas for my family, scattered over the country. They look forward to them, just as my sisters and I looked forward to them when my grandmother made them. It's hard to get black walnuts in the grocery stores, and these are much fresher smelling and tasting. Thanks!! ”

Dianne, Winston-Salem, NC November 13, 2012

“Hey guys. This is, Nutty Urea. I just got my black walnuts and pecan brittle. Yea !!!!!! First of all, I did not expect to get my order so soon. Love that.
Now, let's talk about the nuts. LOVE LOVE LOVE! can not find these 2 things here in So. Cal. Black walnuts and pecans are my absolute favorites. I might share, then I might not. But will order again for sure.”

urea, moreno valley, caligornia November 10, 2012

“The nuts arrived on Nov. 7, as promised & the black walnuts have been safely stored out of sight until I'm ready to bake. They look so good that if I don't put them away, I might not have enough to do my baking. If there are any left after I finish baking, I will certainly enjoy them.”

Carol, Foley, AL November 9, 2012

“This is my second time ordering nuts from nuts.com. The pumpkin seeds are much larger than I expected and taste great! The black walnuts taste and smell as if they were just cracked. I haven't opened the other nuts yet but I expect they will be great also. The prices are very reasonable and they shipped extremely fast. I highly recommend nuts.com for all your nut cravings! Thanks, Ray Etter - Vinton VA (USA)”

Ray November 8, 2012

“Having grown up with black walnuts many decades ago,,understanding the entire process, knowing how very special they are, it has been pure pleasure putting them into smaller packages this afternoon, trying not to nibble too many. A very wonderful treat. Thank you.very much. Good Luck! ”
