To freeze walnuts, first make sure they are clean, dry and free of any debris. Spread them out in a single layer on a baking sheet and place in the freezer for about an hour. This will prevent them from sticking together when stored. Once they are frozen, transfer them to an airtight container or freezer bag and label them with the date.
When ready to use, take out the desired amount of frozen walnuts and let them thaw at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes. Frozen walnuts can be used in baking, as a topping for oatmeal or yogurt, or as a snack.
It's important to note that freezing doesn't prevent the nuts from going rancid, it just slows it down. So, it's still important to check the walnuts before consuming or baking with them, to ensure they are still fresh and not rancid.
Additionally, it's recommended to consume the frozen walnuts within 6 months for optimal taste, but it will be safe to consume them up to 12 months from freezing, as long as they are stored properly.
