About Pickled walnuts
Pickled walnuts are generally whole immature walnuts preserved in a spiced vinegar or similar acidic mixture. They are harvested while still green and soft enough to pickle; after processing, they are typically dark brown, tender, and may have a slightly yielding interior. Their flavor is tangy and savory-sweet, often with noticeable spice and a mild walnut character.
They are commonly sold whole in jars and served as a condiment or accompaniment. The preparation is distinct from pickling mature, shelled walnut kernels: immature walnuts are used with their outer green covering, and curing and pickling methods vary. Products differ in sweetness, spice, acidity, and the amount of packing liquid.
