nutshells
Hard seed covers
Nutshells are the hard outer casings of nuts.
The phrase in a nutshell means expressed in the briefest possible form—as if the entire matter could fit inside something so small: That's the whole problem in a nutshell.
To nutshell something is to summarize it concisely: Can you nutshell the report for me?
