At Cascina Masueria<\/strong>, we grow and transform hazelnuts with great care<\/strong> and passion<\/strong>. The hazelnut tree needs excellent sun exposure and specific environmental conditions. Plant and soil management take place throughout the season and contribute to high-quality yields. The hazelnut cultivar we grow is the Tonda Gentile Trilobata<\/strong>, the typical variety suited to our climate in Le Langhe<\/strong> and the only cultivar that can receive the “Piemonte IGP” certification. Pruning carried out annually, combined with mechanical suckering, contributes to a high quality harvest. Harvesting takes place around mid-August<\/strong>, when the hazelnuts fall naturally. We carefully follow each step of the process to ensure maximum quality and flavor<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

From the cultivation to the transformation of each hazelnut, the process combines tradition and innovation. Hazelnuts are initially passed through a cleaner to remove residues and impurities,<\/strong> then manually examined for further sorting. After this stage, the hazelnuts are calibrated<\/strong> by size and then shelled<\/strong> using advanced machinery that performs the work without harm to the product. The raw hazelnuts<\/strong> are then weighed and placed in the roaster<\/strong>, where toasting<\/strong> occurs. Finally, they are transformed into roasted hazelnuts, left whole or turned into pieces, butter, or spreads.<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
