Wet walnuts
Template:Infobox prepared food
Wet walnuts or just walnut topping is a dessert topping made from walnuts and maple syrup.[1] Sometimes simple syrup, corn syrup, sugar[2] or brown rice syrup[2] is used instead of (or in combination with) the maple syrup. Wet walnut topping is similar in some respects to pralines, except that the walnuts are always served in syrup, rather than as individual pieces. Some commercial preparations of premade wet walnuts exist.[3]
Wet walnuts are most commonly served with ice cream and as a sundae topping.[3] They are often available as an ice cream topping at ice cream parlors in the United States.
Wet walnuts (United Kingdom) also refers to fresh walnuts which have not been dried for keeping. They are also called green walnuts. Fresh (wet) walnuts have been stated to pair well with some hard cheeses such as pecorino and Parmesan.[4] Some foods are prepared using wet walnuts as a primary ingredient, such as mhammara dip.[5]
