Yeah and it's all true too.

I've done my research and have some experience with them. Thanks for the advice though, even if it was shit.

I had a coupla trees for about fifteen years, TBH all I ever did with them is dehusk and leave 'em in a bucket or plastic tub till I could be arsed cracking them, for which I used a 9/16 ringspanner and a hammer.

That's about what i was going to do, minus the spanner but it's been so moist lately that I fear a fungal invasion in the small cracks in the shell. Not only that but the moisture in the nut will take longer to evaporate in a bucket so a screened drying table it will be. I am a dab hand a cracking them open with my ball pein hammer so the spanner is not required. I intend to roast some and smoke some with various different flavours..... salt, garlic, chili etc etc. I never took them too serious before but am determined to do a bang up job of it this year.

The spanner just holds them in place a limits the likelihood of busting up the kernel, but yeah, ball pein is the way to go, Lolz.

If you tend to break a few, crushed and mixed with panko makes a tasty coating for near any thing you'd crumb and fry.

I never thought of that. I have been wondering what to do with them bits. Sounds perfect. Thanks a million.

It would have been funnier if you could have produced one that even remotely kept the theme going Gary. I'm a bit disappointed and feel you could do better. You're slipping mate. Get your shit together and get with the programme.
