Walnut ideas

Quoted message said:

I'm looking for a few new ideas for using walnuts. I've roasted them,
used them in stuffings, in pestos, and also topped salads with them.
I've even made cookies with them.

Preferably a side dish, or a dessert. Single guy. Cute girl. She likes
walnuts. It really is an emergency.<g>

I once bought a flourless birthday cake for may wife that was made of
walnuts. I wouldn't do it again because I can't eat walnuts, but everyone
else loved it.

I use walnuts to make pie crusts, instead of pastry. Just chop 'em up
really fine, toss 'em with splenda (or sugar) and some butter then

press

into the pan. I use this as a crust for cheesecake and pumpkin pie.

It is a 1:1 replacement for flour ? It seem the walnuts would have more
fat. Do I need to cut back on the butter ?

thanks,

I love them in brownies. I also like pecans in brownies.

I _prefer_ pecans in brownies. ;-)

Walnuts get fed to the parrot!

I hate walnuts. So _bitter_!!!

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.---

You have a parrot? What kind? My cousins have 3. I baby sat one time. One
would talk and start the car the car noise. It was a riot. I thought the
was started and going. The other 2 did not talk much. The yappy parrot
was a big white one. I know nothing about birds but I had complete
instructions on how to care for them. They really did not do well without
the cousins there. They missed them, were cranky and would bite. One bird
lost it's feathers. I had to vet it. They were a pain. But they had 3
birds. I was in Dallas at the time visiting them.

Odds are, the white parrot you took care of was also a cockatoo. :-)

Here you go Ginny
..
Maple walnut ice cream
----------------------------

1 cup real maple syrup
[won't be as well flavoured with imitation maple syrup]

3 egg yolks, beaten

1/4 tsp. salt

1 tsp. vanilla extract.

3 egg white, stiffly beaten

1 cup whipping cream, beaten to a thickened "custard" like consistency

1/2 cup skinned, chopped walnuts.

Place maple syrup in upper part of a double boiler, and heat, but do not
boil, over hot water.

Then, stir in the lightly beaten egg yolk with salt until well
blended.

Cook, stirring constantly, over hot water, until mixture thickens.
Remove from water, and add vanilla extract. Chill. When cold, fold in
the stiffly beaten egg white, alternately with the cream which has been
beaten to a custard like consistency.

Freeze in a loaf pan to a mushy consistency, or until a layer is frozen
1 inch from side of pan. Remove from freezer and scrape and stir from
bottom and sides of pan. Then beat until smooth incorporating at the
same time the chopped, skinned walnuts. Return to freezer and freeze
for 3 hours.
