Function

Nut processing creates ingredients with specific particle sizes, oil content, and stability for use in manufactured foods. Processing enables consistent texture and extended shelf life.

Sources

Industrial nut processing involves blanching, roasting at high temperatures, grinding with stabilizers, and oil extraction. Processing may include hydrogenation of nut oils for stability.

Health Considerations

Processing removes the natural portion control of whole nuts and may reduce satiety signaling. High-temperature processing can create acrylamide and reduce beneficial compounds.

Regulatory

FDA requires allergen labeling for tree nuts and peanuts in any form. Processing methods and additives in nut products may not require disclosure.
