Walnuts without shells are 4% water, 15% protein, 65% fat, and 14% carbohydrates, including 7% dietary fiber (table). In a 100 gram serving, walnuts provide 2,740 kilojoules (654 kcal) and rich content (more than 19% of the Daily Value or DV) of several dietary minerals, particularly manganese at 163% DV, and B vitamins (table). While English walnuts are the most commonly consumed, their nutrient density and profile are generally similar to those of black walnuts. Unlike most nuts that are high in monounsaturated fatty acids, walnut oil is composed largely of polyunsaturated fatty acids (72% of total fats), particularly alpha-linolenic acid (14%) and linoleic acid (58%), although it does contain oleic acid as 13% of total fats.
Chestnut
Chestnut: Chestnuts are highly nutritious and contain much protein and various kinds of vitamins, so they are called the “king of nuts”. Jingdong produces the best chestnuts in China. With its unique climate and fertile soil, Baiyang Valley produces quality chestnuts that are big, thin-skinned, fragrant, sweet, and soft.
Sour pear
Sour pear: With a scientific name of pyrus ussuriensis, sour pears have a sweet and sour taste and contain much vitamin B. They can protect hearts, relieve cough, reduce phlegm and prevent cancer. Sour pears are the most edible in winter, and will turn soft and juicy after being stored for several months. They can also be used for making pear vinegar which, when being added in cold dishes, will deliver unique taste.
