About Walnut paste

Walnut paste is a nutrient-rich spread made primarily from finely ground walnuts, often blended with a touch of oil, water, or sweeteners like honey for added texture and flavor. Originating from regions like the Caucasus, Mediterranean, and the Middle East, this versatile paste is a staple in many traditional dishes and recipes, including sauces, dips, and desserts. Packed with heart-healthy fats, omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and antioxidants, walnut paste supports brain health and reduces inflammation. It's a good source of vitamins and minerals such as vitamin E, magnesium, and copper. However, due to its high calorie and fat content, portion control is key, especially for those watching their caloric intake. Whether used as a base for savory spreads or incorporated into sweet treats, walnut paste offers a delicious and nutritious way to enjoy the benefits of walnuts.
