Hazelnut delight

The Langhe hazelnuts are almost as famous as its wines, as key ingredients in Ferrero’s chocolates and in the Nutella cream. Hazelnut plantations occupy a big part of the cultivated land mainly in the Alta Langa, or high Langhe, where high hills are basically covered by woods and meadows. Don’t miss the chance to visit a local farm to discover all the secrets of growing and processing this small gem. A surprising tasting of mouth-watering products just waits for you!

I never realised there is so much to know about hazelnuts. I just knew it from Nutella. Now I have learned that they are super healthy, can be used in savoury and sweet dishes. I was very surprised that they are used to make hands cream with! Amazing!
