Roasted Kernel
Roasted black walnut kernels take the already bold meat through dry or oil heat until the resinous note turns toastier and the surface firms. Light roast suits ice cream and paste; dark roast tips into bitterness quickly with this species. Cool trays fully before packing so steam does not soften the set. Roasted stock stales faster than raw cured meats—freeze or use soon. Salt while warm if crystals should cling. Label as tree nut.
