Hazelnuts (also called filberts) are round, sweet tree nuts famous for their pairing with chocolate in Nutella and pralines. They're the second-highest nut source of vitamin E after almonds and contain the highest manganese content of any common nut.
Yes! Filbert is the traditional European name for hazelnuts. The terms are used interchangeably, though 'hazelnut' is more common in North America.
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.

Store in airtight container in cool, dark place for 3 months. Refrigerate for 6 months or freeze for up to 1 year.
