4 c Water
2 c Walnuts

Traditionally, these crispy sweet walnuts are served
as a "starter" appetizer to a Chinese banquet dinner
to tease the palate before the first entree. They make
wonderful snacks or a perfect cocktail food.
PREHEAT OVEN TO 325F. Bring a pot of water to a full
boil. Add walnuts, remove from heat and set aside for

stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes or until
golden brown. Remove and serve. Store in an airtight
