Christmas Time is coming and one of things I like to do is put together some Mixed Nuts. I hate buying Mixed Nuts as they are often overloaded with peanuts, even when they claim on the label that there are only 30% peanuts. Mixed Nuts can be rather expensive these days as for just one type of...

Hello, I somehow found myself in possession of what appears to be a nut, but have no idea what it is. At first I thought it might have been the pit of some citrus fruit, but now I am wholly unsure. I thought maybe one of you more experienced wielders of nuts could help me. I took the...

I have to say that this is the first cheese that I've made using almond nuts and I rather like it. The cheese is meant to be similar to a feta and in some ways I guess it is but I personally won't user the word feta to describe it. It does, however, have a really nice clean taste to it. It...

I'm going to call this a retro recipe because I first got the recipe when I was a young child reading Highlight's magazine. It was a candy I enjoyed as a child, partly because I really liked it, partly because I could make it pretty much by myself, with mother doing the chopping and measuring...

Is it a tradition in your house to have a bowl of Christmas nuts in shells? As a kid, I remember there being a bowl of nuts every Christmas with the nutcrackers poked into the bowl. We had brazils, hazelnuts, almonds and walnuts. We used to eat them on Christmas Day afternoon or on Boxing Day. I...

I probably wouldn't bother for peanut butter, since there are so many varieties and brands that are readily available, but I might try for another type of nut. I've heard of almond butter and cashew butter and other varieties, and they sound delicious. We don't have anything like that in my...
