About
The story
Akhrot giri — walnut kernels already out of the shell. These are hand-sorted light halves from valley orchards, cold-stored so they keep their sweetness. They come in three grades: Brown, Classic and Premium.
How to eat them
Eat a handful as they are, or chop them into porridge, salads, brownies and halwa. A quick toast in a dry pan brings out their flavour.
Storing them
Walnuts turn bitter when they are kept warm. Once the pack is open, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge. A sharp, paint-like smell means a kernel has gone off.
- Serving
- A handful (28g)
- Shelf life
- 6 months
Storage & usage
Refrigerate in an airtight container once opened; keeps its sweetness for months.

Buying guide
Choosing Kashmiri dry fruits
What sets a dry fruit apart is the variety and how it was dried, not the brand on the bag. Here is what to look for.
Mamra almonds
We sell thisBoat-shaped kernels with high natural oil — richer and sweeter than commercial almonds.
Californian almonds
Flat, uniform and cheaper. Bred for orchard yield rather than oil and flavour.
Light walnut kernels
We sell thisFrom fresh, well-dried nuts: pale gold, sweet and mild.
Dark walnut kernels
Older or over-dried nuts. Safe to eat but more bitter, and they turn rancid sooner.
Sun-dried figs
We sell thisDried whole without sulphur, so they darken naturally and carry their own sugar bloom.
Questions, answered
About Kashmiri Walnut Kernels (Akhrot Giri)
Why are some kernels lighter than others?
Colour is the grade: light kernels come from the freshest, best-dried nuts and taste sweetest. Dark kernels are not spoiled, but can taste more bitter.
How should I store walnuts?
Walnuts carry a lot of oil, so they keep best in an airtight container in the fridge — up to six months — or in the freezer for longer.
How do I know if walnuts have gone off?
A sharp, paint-like smell or a bitter taste means the oil has turned. Fresh kernels smell mild and nutty.
