Soaking Your Nuts

I like my nuts to be soaked with equal amounts of salt.

Caution: Wine is the gateway drug to nut soaking.

I just needed to post in a thread with this title.

Will kosher salt give you kosher nuts? Or is there even such a thing as kosher nuts?

T- I don't know about soaking your nuts, but around the holidays you may want to consider glazing your nuts. Nothing says "Happy Holidays" quite like glazed nuts. Of course if chocolate is your thing, you could always stick your nuts in a chocolate fountain.

You guys are clearly nuts!!

this article about soaking your nuts in warm water got me thinking. it says to soak your nuts in warm water, but i am wondering if soaking ones nuts in something else would be advisable?

thanks in advance for any advice on nut soaking.

I like Sally Fallon's book "Nourishing Traditions".

They often make candied nuts at work to garnish a dish.

they grill nuts on the street here in nyc. the smell of grilled nuts is somehow intoxicating. personally never tried them tho.

The thought of soaking one's nuts (assuming you have 'em) doesn't bother me as much as having to dehydrate them afterwards.

I would not want my nuts roasting on an open street especially on the streets of NYC for all to see.

but you don't mind roasting your nuts in private?

hell no!

I toast to my nuts every night.

The toughest man I ever met was a street vender in NYC who actually whistled while his nuts were roasting.

A guy comes home from work at the deli. He says to his wife, "Honey, I must confess. I have this desire to stick my penis in the pickle slicer."
She says, "Oh My God...Don't do it."
Next day, he comes home and says, "I couldn't resist. I put my penis in the pickle slicer."
She shrieks, "Oh my God, what happened?"
He says, "I got fired."
She says, "That's all?"
"No" he says. "The pickle slicer....she got fired also."
Ba dum dum.

Unsalted for a clean taste.

Soaking your nuts in warm water is a good idea before hitting the heavy bag.

LMFAO!!

Don't soak your nuts in water that is too hot.
Clicky

I once dated girl who loved to have a side of soaked nuts with summer sausage. But it seemed like she only enjoyed this around the holidays. Funny though, it was only when the Hickory Farms sales guy was around.

The relationship didn't last long...

Don't ever date a girl who likes crushed nuts, even if only on ice cream.

Diluted balsamic vinegar is good for walnuts and pecans, for about 1/2 hour before toasting.

I prefer to soak my nuts in a nice, warm, moist claimshell. You get that "Zang" that everbody is looking for.

I almost posted on the advantages of soaking nuts in water, but after reading all the posts prior I've now reconsidered. I aint touching this one

We're all going to hell.

I wonder it you're allowed to soak your nuts there? Or do they only have roasted?

That doesn't really inspire hunger in me. Not that there's anything wrong with that!

Once I soaked my Nuts in Amsterdam. They became soiled and nasty. It took modern medicine for them to be tasty again.
