Storage Guides

       As macadamia nut kernels have high fat content, they should best be vacuum packed or packed in nitrogen flushed container to prevent rancidity. The fresh kernels are creamy white which grow darker as they age. 
       If stored in its original, unopened, vacuum-packed package in a cool (3-4°C), dry environment, it will normally retain its best quality for about a year from its package date and more than a year if stored in a freezer (-18°C).

       After opening, it should be kept in an airtight container and refrigerated to retain its quality. 
       In case nuts have gone rancid or developed an off odor, they should be used for animal feed such as chicken or pigs but not dogs. Macadamias are toxic to dogs.
