However, the scientific name <em>macadamia<\/em> it was given in honor of Australian physician and scientist John Macadam.<br \/> Today these plants are grown in several subtropical and tropical countries of the world.  After Australia, the largest producer in the world are the Hawaiian Islands, where there were the first intensive cultivation of macadamia nuts from trees imported from Australia.

They are bright green on the upper side and paler on the underside.<br \/> The inflorescences of <em>Macadamia integrifolia<\/em> they are racemes of 10-30 male or female flowers, with a diameter of about 1 cm.  The flowers are creamy-white in color and have a sponge-like structure.<br \/> The fruits, i.e. the nuts, are round in shape, with a diameter of about 2-3.5 cm.  The skin of the nuts is smooth and light green or tan in color, while the flesh is white and crunchy, rich in oil, and has a sweet, buttery flavor.  Each nut contains an edible kernel, which is enclosed in a hard shell.<br \/> The plant is resistant to drought and high temperatures and requires a subtropical or tropical climate to grow.  It is a slow growing plant, which takes 5 to 7 years to start producing fruit and about 10-12 years to reach full production.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"ezoic-autoinsert-video ezoic-mid_content\"><\/span><!-- ezoic_video_placeholder-mid_content-640x360-999996-clearholder --><!-- ezoic_video_placeholder-mid_content-640x360-999996-nonexxxclearxxxblock --><!-- ezoic_video_placeholder-mid_content-426x240-999996-clearholder --><!-- ezoic_video_placeholder-mid_content-426x240-999996-nonexxxclearxxxblock --><!-- ezoic_video_placeholder-mid_content-384x216-999996-clearholder --><!-- ezoic_video_placeholder-mid_content-384x216-999996-nonexxxclearxxxblock --><\/p><div id=\"forum-504747942\" class=\"forum-content-3 forum-entity-placement\">\t\t<div class=\"ad-wrapper\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:250px;text-align:center\">\r\n\t\t\t<!-- In Article Blog -->\r\n\t\t\t<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n\t\t\t\t style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3476569516614521\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-slot=\"9829044906\"><\/ins>\r\n\t\t\t<script>\r\n\t\t\t\t (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n\t\t\t<\/script>\r\n\t\t<\/div><\/div>\n<h2>How are they harvested and shelled?<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-27502\" src=\"https:\/\/forum.sbenny.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1688388980_391_Macadamia-nuts-what-they-are-properties-and-uses.jpg\" alt=\"macadamia nuts\" width=\"780\" height=\"427\"  ><br \/>  The harvesting and processing of macadamia nuts requires care and attention to avoid damaging the shells and the kernel inside.<br \/> Harvesting usually occurs when the fruit falls of its own accord from the tree, but it can also be harvested by hand.  After harvesting, the fruits are placed in a cool, dry place to dry naturally.  This drying process can take a few weeks depending on the weather conditions.<br \/> After drying, the fruits are shelled to remove the protective outer shell.  There are several techniques for shelling macadamia nuts, but the most common method is to use pliers or a knife to break the shell, which is very hard.  Alternatively, special tools such as pressure or vibrating shelling machines can be used.<br \/> Once shelled, macadamia nuts are often roasted to enhance their flavor and to extend their shelf life.  Roasted nuts can be eaten as a snack or used in sweet and savory recipes.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div class=\"penci-ilrltpost-insert\">\n<div class=\"penci-ilrelated-posts pcilrt-list pcilrt-none pcilrt-col-2\">\n<div class=\"pcilrp-heading pcilrph-align-left\"> <span>Insights<\/span><\/div>\n<ul class=\"pcilrp-content\">\n<li class=\"pcilrp-item pcilrp-item-list\">  The tamarillo.
