A Ginkgo Lesson

Ginkgo. Try cooking them and they'll teach you a lesson or two.
Isn't it funny that some food can teach you a life lesson? Well, with Ginkgo, I'm sure it does.

Ginkgo nuts. Though, smelly from the outside and bitter from the inside, it provides nutritious vitamins which helps improves memories. So, Gwen, you know what to do larh :P
The only possible way to open them is by cracking them open. However, if crack too hard, it'll spoil the texture of the seed. The texture of the seed is kept intact, so that the nutrients from the seed would not leak out.
If cracking the nut shell is not a problem, try peeling off the layer of skin.
Peeling the skin is the trickiest part. If you're not patient enough, your Ginkgo will end up like this.
A perfect Ginkgo looks like this.
And once you're done peeling, the Ginkgos are ready to be cook!!

Put your patience to the test with Ginkgo!! XD
