Questions & Replies

  1. Been making Honeyed Walnuts for MANY years now and have problems occasionally with getting the syrup to turn milky before putting them on a cookie sheet to cool. This last batch never turned milky and have remained sticky with thread like strands that are like I just discovered a new taffy recipe . Ary idea what happened.... We have single digit humidity ... I welcome any suggestions..... Thanks

  1. Your recipe will be famous! We enjoy the nuts with the chili touch. I can imagine that this could be nice presents for friend when we are invited in somebody%u2019s house. Tasty, special and pretty. What do you need more?<br/>I%u2019m sure we%u2019ll do it again.
     
  2. I made them today...next time I am thinking not to add sugar just to make it healthier.but the taste was perfect and we ate them to the last one
     
  3. Mine also were very sticky, and there was way too much sauce for 1 cup of walnuts. I made them to take to a party, but had to go to plan B when the nuts stuck to each other.
     
  4. The walnuts did not dry as stated in the recipe. They are super sticky. I put them on a rack with wax paper underneath to catch drips. Several walnuts stuck to the wax paper and had to be thrown out. There was so much sauce that I used 4 cups of walnuts. The taste is ok, not outstanding. I will not be using this recipe again.
     
  5. PERFECT! These were awesome; sweet, with a little heat, which creeps up on you! I thought I had walnut halves, but, mine were pieces, which worked out fine! The walnuts made a great nibble, before dinner, and would be perfect as a cocktail nosh. Oh, would also be awesome on a salad! I'm so glad I finally made these; I will save in them in my "tried and true'" cookbook! Thanks for sharing, katew!
