I hate

Blocked.

My walnut tree has fruit this year. And it's quite abundant (despite an army of squirrels helping themselves). It's been recommended that I pickle some. They sound terrible; anyone tried pickled walnuts?

Yeah @Chalfie recommended them to me in such glowing terms that I bought a jar.

I still haven't forgiven him.

Picklebacks FTW.

2 glasses, one of bourbon, one of the pickle water from a jar of cornichons. alternate sips.
Delicious.

Or just neck one after the other. (booze first)

I've eaten them, not made them.
Great addition to a christmas cheese board.

Pickle juice can also stop muscle cramps

Pickled walnuts are superb.

pickled walnuts

My dad's ones were always too much, but sweeter ones - say with a balsamic based pickle - are good. F&M do excellent pickled walnuts, so maybe pick up a bottle of those first.

They're a really old and traditional "delicacy". Dickens wrote about them. As with most things from Dickens' era, they are an acquired taste.

I used to fucking hate them as a kid but I love one or two with a ploughmans.

Preaching to the choir. Stuff of dreams.

My love of all things pickled falls short of pickled deer hearts unfortunately.

Best off keepung windows shut when its hot anyway.

@Mukashibanashi
I am none exclusionary of my detest of pickled produce. Yes. Bun a pickled chilli!

It is more recommended to make Nocino

Making Nocino duly added to the Good Life list of things to do.

I'll do that. And makes a lot of sense.

Walnuts are one of the things i most detest. Horrible squeaky texture with a disgusting metallic aftertaste. Once pickled they become amazing with a strong cheddar.
And that is why pickling is great.

The only pickle content you need.

@Skülly is the master of walnut pickling.

I was going to reply with the exact opposite. Absolute abomination of a drink combo.

The local veggie eatery/bar the gherkin serves pickles with most meals, has a £1 shot which tastes of half pickle juice half booze and had a drag queen on for their pride party who opened a jar of pickles with their bumcheeks.

cf. dirty martini

Or just Martini, let's face it.

I've had pickled reindeer heart which I imagine is very similar. Was pretty tasty I seem to remember.

Maybe I'm being a prude. I love heart. Can eat chicken hearts like sweets. Will give pickled heart a shot if I ever have the chance!

How big was the jar-top? Asking for a friend obvs....
