With great dificulty
We used to throw them in the driveway and pick them up as the hulls wear off.
Cutting off the hulls by hand will dye your hands brown.
... even while wearing rubber gloves.
After you get the hulls off, you have a thick inner shell with small passages for the nut meat. Old dental tools (ask your dentist for broken picks) work well for removing the meat from the shell.
