With our local [[walnuts]] now available again, I've been trying out various tools to open [[walnuts]]. The best tool I've found is actually a Mole Wrench, which works fabulously well on all types of [[nuts]]. The only downside is that is doesn't look too good in the living room! | With our local [[walnuts]] now available again, I've been trying out various tools to open [[walnuts]].

The red plastic Drosselmeyer ConeCracker tool works really well and the plastic version is more than £30 cheaper than the identical aluminium nut cracker. | |||

The wooden Hofmeister Holzwaren Mushroom nut cracker looks fantastic and at less than £10 is a bargain. The downside is that as you screw down to crack the nut, the nut tends to turn too and oftern only half the nut is broken. Still good and works with many different [[nuts]] including the almost impossible to open [[brazil nuts]]. | |||
