Hi, my name is Zara and I am new to the grapevine. I just wondered if any members had any suggestions with what I could do with green walnuts? Can I compost them?

Definitely pickle them, but it is a very long and involved process.
Will post a recipe if you are interested.

It's a few years since I did pickled walnuts, but I know the process wasn't particularly involved (takes time, but so do most pickles). As best I recall it went like this.Originally posted by valmarg View Post
Buy pickling vinegar (ready spiced), make brine (3oz salt per pint of water). Pack walnuts into jars, cover with brine, leave for several days (I think it was a week, only detail I am not totally sure about)
Drain off brine, quick rinse, put walnuts back into jars, cover with pickling vinegar, store 3 months or more.Flowers come in too many colours to see the world in black-and-white.Comment
