Walnuts in carrot cake are common but another use is in horse radish
sauce, make a small dice of the walnuts and let rest in the sauce for a
couple of days. Somewhere i have a recipie for bannan, date and walnut
salad, often times "Croquetts" are coated with a fine mince of walnuts.
Grated over a green salad with lime juice and avacado oil is very good.
Occsionaly for special occasions i will make a calvadose (apple) brandy
& walnut stuffing. If anyone is interested i have precise instructions
for maple walnut ice cream (refrigerator tray method). Sometime walnuts
are gound finely and used to make pie crusts.---
