==Description== [[File:Haselnuss.jpg|thumb|Cracked hazelnut shell displaying the edible seed]] [[File:Corylus colurna (1).JPG|thumb|Hazelnut tree, Turkey]] A hazelnut cob is roughly spherical to oval, about {{convert|15β25|mm|in|abbr=off|frac=8}} long and {{convert|10β15|mm|in|abbr=on|frac=8}} in diameter, with an outer fibrous [[husk]] surrounding a smooth shell, while a filbert is more elongated, being about twice as long as its diameter. The nut falls out of the husk when ripe, about seven to eight months after pollination. The [[seed]] is edible and consumed raw, roasted or ground into a paste. The seed has a thin, dark brown skin, which is sometimes removed before cooking.
