The Italian region of Campania is home to a rare agricultural treasure: the Mortarella hazelnut. This variety of hazelnut has unique characteristics that make it a sought-after ingredient in top-quality cuisine, particularly in the production of confectionery.
The Mortarella fruit is elongated and medium to small in size, giving the nut a unique subcylindrical appearance. Its thin shell, of an attractive light brown colour with darker stripes, encloses a kernel of exceptional flavour and delicate ivory-white colour.
Mortarella is appreciated not only for its rich flavour and strong aroma, but also for its culinary versatility. Its excellent processing properties make it ideal for the production of hazelnut paste, an essential ingredient in many confectionery products.
The cultivation of the Mortarella is relatively simple, which contributes to its widespread presence in the agricultural areas of Campania. Its ubiquitous presence in the region testifies to its importance not only for the local economy, but also for the preservation of biodiversity and regional culinary traditions.
In short, the Mortarella hazelnut is an excellent example of how devotion to the land and the quality of products can offer unique flavours, while at the same time promoting the culture and economy of a region. For lovers of good food and Italian agricultural excellence, Campania and its Mortarella are an essential reference point.
