Harvest description & origin details
We source our Akhrot Giri directly from family-owned walnut orchards located in Pahalgam, Kulgam, and Kupwara in Kashmir. In our valley, walnut trees grow naturally in high-altitude cold weather and snow without any chemical fertilizers or artificial sprays. Akhrot Giri is the inner edible kernel taken out after cracking the thin Kagzi outer shell.
Because this is 100% natural farm produce from mountain trees and not manufactured in a factory, every kernel will not have the exact same shape or color. You will find natural whole halves and quarters in the pack, with colors ranging from light golden to natural earthy brown. Both light and slightly darker kernels carry full natural walnut oil and authentic sweet, earthy taste. We hand-sort every batch before vacuum packing at our facility in Wanpora, Kulgam, removing empty bits and shell dust so you receive clean kernels ready to eat.
How to use: You can eat 4 to 5 walnut kernels directly in the morning, or soak them in water overnight and eat with breakfast. Soaking softens the outer skin and makes it easy to digest. Akhrot Giri is also used across Indian homes in traditional recipes like kheer, halwa, dry fruit laddoos, bakery cakes, and Kashmiri walnut chutney made with green chillies and curd.
Storage tips: Always store your walnut kernels in an airtight jar in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. In warm summer months, we strongly recommend keeping the container inside your refrigerator to protect the natural oils from going bitter and keep them fresh for up to 12 months.
Akhrot from Kashmir
Our Akhrot Giri comes from Pahalgam, Anantnag and Kulgam. Walnut is familiar in Kashmir and is used at home as dry fruit and in different recipes. We sell the edible giri, so the hard outer shell is already removed.
Natural kernels are not all same
Our walnuts comes from a tree, not from a factory. One kernel can be lighter, light golden-brown and some light/snow white. Size and shape also change. You can find full halves and smaller natural pieces in the same pack. This variation is normal for the crop. You will never find any Dark brown or blackish kernels in our pack as the color means old stock, improper drying, or exposure to moisture. If you find one single piece in our pack we will give 100% refund.
How we use it at home
Akhrot Giri can be eaten directly or used in normal home cooking. Chop it for breakfast, cakes or breads, or use it in kheer, halwa and chutney. Use the amount according to your own recipe and taste.
Keeping the giri
Once the pack is open, close it properly or move the kernels to an airtight container. Keep away from heat, moisture, sunlight and strong-smelling foods. For longer keeping after opening, refrigeration is useful.
How to use
Eat 4 to 5 walnut kernels in the morning, or soak them in water overnight. You can also crush them and add to milk, halwa, kheer, oats, or bakery items. They also make a great Kashmiri walnut chutney with our Kashmiri whole dried red chillies (mirchi) — you can buy both together. To make it: soak a few whole dried mirchi in warm water for 15-20 minutes to soften, then grind them with a handful of walnut kernels and a little salt, traditionally in a stone mortar (kanz). If using an electric grinder instead, add just a spoon of curd to help it grind smoothly. Serve fresh with rice, roti, or as a side with any meal.
Storage Instructions
Keep in a clean airtight container in a cool, dry place away from heat. In summer seasons, store in refrigerator to keep natural oils fresh and avoid bitterness.
