Summer is upon us and that means ice cream season is here. Even though many of us may enjoy ice cream year round, summer seems to be the season when it is enjoyed most. Both for it’s creamy delicious as well as it’s cooling properties. How many of us have fond summer memories of being treated to a sundae at the local creamery? If you are from the south, then you may be familiar with a common ice cream topping called wet walnuts which is really just a sweet, syrupy topping full of walnut halves. Perfect for the top of a scoop of vanilla ice cream or in addition to hot fudge on a sundae. This is the quintessential topping for the discerning sundae maker! They are very easy to make and will last in your fridge for up to three months, but I promise they will not last that long!
As I mentioned, this topping is very simple to make. A combination of pure maple syrup, corn syrup (I used organic), brown sugar salt and vanilla extract, this topping goes together quickly. The hard part is waiting for it to cool from it’s molten state so you can enjoy this tasty, homemade treat!
I also made a jar of wet pecans just for fun and they taste just like old fashioned pralines! These are wonderful on ice cream or used as a decoration on a fancy frosted layer cake. Think how wonderful these would taste served on top of French toast, pancakes or waffles! How about some stirred into your morning oatmeal? I think that the possibilities are only limited to your imagination!
These wet walnuts should not be confused with what the Europeans refer to as wet walnuts which are nothing more than freshly picked walnuts that have not had a chance to cure or dry out. They have a very creamy texture and are used in many savory culinary applications. These are sweet and decadent and a great finish to your favorite sundae.
This recipe is not suitable for canning. I have used mason jars simply for ease of storage. The Ball Blue Book does have a maple walnut ice cream topping recipe for canning in a small batch. This is a safety tested recipe which mine is not. You can find the canning recipe here: http://bit.ly/2sJC5bo
I hope you will give this recipe for both wet walnuts and wet pecans a try some time this summer and I hope you love it!
