Roasted hazelnut kernels

For various reasons, our Seeberger roasted hazelnuts are probably one of the tastiest snacks in the world. Without exaggerating, of course. Above all, the quality and the gentle roasting process play a key role. Made from carefully selected hazelnuts, refined with a light hint of nougat and coated with a thin layer of caramelized sugar, our roasted hazelnuts provide an intense taste experience. This is the way to buy nuts today.

Roasted hazelnuts are traditionally boiled in a mixture of sugar and water and then caramelized, giving them their characteristic crunchy, sweet crust. Caramelized nuts, on the other hand, are often roasted in butter or oil and then coated with sugar or syrup, which gives them a shinier, less crunchy texture. Roasted hazelnuts therefore have a more intense flavor and a crunchier texture, making them a special treat.

Sure, roasted hazelnuts are an excellent addition to your breakfast. Sprinkle them over your muesli, porridge or yoghurt to add a sweet and crunchy note to your morning. They also go well with pancakes or waffles, either as a topping or mixed directly into the batter.

The sweet, caramelized note of the nuts goes well with creamy or spicy sauces. You can finely chop them and stir them into a cheese or cream sauce to give it a special flavor. Roasted hazelnuts also cut an unexpectedly good figure in chutneys or relishes.

Roasted hazelnuts usually keep for several months if they are stored unopened in a cool, dry place. Read the best-before date on the packaging carefully. Once opened, they should be consumed within a few weeks.

Yes, you can freeze roasted hazelnut kernels to extend their shelf life. Place the nuts in an airtight freezer bag or container. They will stay fresh in the freezer for up to three months. If you want to eat them, simply leave them to defrost at room temperature.

Like natural hazelnuts, roasted hazelnuts are rich in good fats, fiber and protein. They also contain important vitamins and minerals such as vitamin E, magnesium and copper.

Roasted hazelnuts are easy to transport and do not require refrigeration, making them ideal as a sweet snack alternative for on the go. Simply store them in a container to have them ready to hand at all times when you're out and about.

Roasted hazelnut kernels harmonize perfectly with different drinks, depending on which flavours you want to combine. They go particularly well with hot drinks such as coffee, cappuccino or hot chocolate, as the sweet caramel note of the nuts wonderfully complements the bitterness of the coffee or the creaminess of the chocolate. Roasted hazelnuts also provide a delicious contrast to tea, especially black or spicy teas such as chai. They are a suitable accompaniment for alcoholic drinks. They are ideal with liqueurs, sweet wines such as port or sherry, and even dark beers such as stout, whose malty notes combine well with the sweetness of hazelnuts.
