Adrian Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 Every Christmas I buy jars of expensive pickled walnuts from Tesco and every Christmas I think of the huge walnut tree in our French garden and wonder why I don't pickle my own - then I remember - it's because I don't know how to. Anyone got any suggestions / recipes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexis Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 We discussed this earlier in the year. You need to pick the walnuts whilst the nut is still soft...a needle will go right through the case and the nut. I had a great fall of them with high winds so had a go but somehow forgot about them and had to chuck them out. You soak them in a brine mix for a couple of weeks I think.Google will give you recipes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Posted December 30, 2004 Author Share Posted December 30, 2004 Thanks, Alexis.I had already searched the Forum for "Pickled Walnut" but got no hits. I have since searched on 'Walnut' and found the thread you were referring to. I had used Google but, like many things in life, there's nothing like getting advice from someone normal (sic) who's done it before! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexis Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 Well, mine went mouldy so ignore everything I say!I did use a google recipe though. I am sure it had large amounts of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
