Description
Chandler is the
lightest-colored walnut with the highest percentage of halves and a
narrower range of flavors, the “white-bread” of nuts.
Chander Walnuts are prized by walnut buyers worldwide for their
attractive light color, often described as “pearly”. The kernels are
very high quality. They are easy removed from the shell in perfect
“butterfly” halves, which means buyers that specialize in
hand-cracking will seek out Chandler nuts.
Kernels average 6.5 grams, giving them a kernel-to-shell ratio of 49%.
Chandler nuts also conserve better than other cultivars.
