walnuts

What about a fruitcake or a walnut-paste-filled stollen soaked in rum?

Skip the fruitcake but the rest has significant appeal... :-)

Seriously yhough, I was hoping that it was possible to make some sort of tasty alcoholic beverage out of them. I could always just throw some in some distilled spirit and see but I'd prefer to eliminate the risk of possibly wasting nuts, hooch and time on something that may have no chance of working.

Take a liter of you 92% shine, add 12 crushed walnuts, and the zest of a lemon. Let it sit for six weeks, strain it, and put it in a freezer for a few days. Tell us how it tastes.

Dick, you just get so much enjoyment out of enticing me to cauterize my tastebuds!! I predict that it will have a very strong alcohol taste accompanied with a really warm sensation which eventually stops.

I'm off to the walnut and lemon tree friend over the long weekend so I will pillage and plunder.
