Frequently Asked Questions
Are hazelnuts and filberts the same thing?
Yes! Filbert is the traditional European name for hazelnuts. The terms are used interchangeably, though 'hazelnut' is more common in North America.
How do you remove hazelnut skins?
Toast at 350°F for 10-15 minutes, then wrap in a clean towel and rub vigorously. The skins will flake off, revealing the smooth nut beneath.
Why are hazelnuts paired with chocolate?
The combination originated in 19th-century Italy when cocoa was scarce. Gianduja (hazelnut-chocolate paste) was created, eventually leading to modern Nutella.
