Home›Dishes›Main Ingredient›WalnutIngredientWalnutNuts and SeedsReference and ClassificationVerifiedA walnut is the edible seed of any tree in the genus Juglans, particularly the Persian or English walnut, Juglans regia; walnuts are technically accessory fruits, since the outer covering of the fruit is an involucre rather than part of the seed-bearing carpel, meaning it cannot be a true drupe but is instead a drupe-like nut. After the fruit fully ripens, its outer shell is discarded and the kernel inside is eaten; nuts of the related eastern black walnut and butternut are also edible but consumed less commonly.FactsWalnutConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsClassificationAllergenWell-attestedTree Nuts 1WalnutFilter Results7 entriesDish FamilyAllAmerican Salads (1)Latin American and Caribbean Stews, Braises and Sauced Dishes (2)Middle Eastern and North African Breads and Pastries (2)Middle Eastern and North African Rice and Grain Dishes (1)Middle Eastern and North African Stews, Braises and Sauced Dishes (1)CuisineAllAmerican Cuisine (1)Lebanese Cuisine (1)Mexican Cuisine (1)Persian Cuisine (1)Peruvian Cuisine (1)Turkish Cuisine (2)Era (Origin Period)All224 (1)1300 (1)1821 (1)TraditionAllChristmas Feast Traditions (1)Ramadan and Eid Feasting Traditions (1)Format/TypeAllAmerican Salads (1)Latin American and Caribbean Stews, Braises and Sauced Dishes (2)Middle Eastern and North African Breads and Pastries (2)Middle Eastern and North African Rice and Grain Dishes (1)Middle Eastern and North African Stews, Braises and Sauced Dishes (1)CourseAllAppetizer (1)Dessert (3)Dietary SuitabilityAllContains Dairy or Egg (1)Origin RegionAllIran (1)Lebanon (1)Mexico (1)Peru (1)Turkey (2)United States (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 7Aji de GallinaWalnutChiles en NogadaWalnutFesenjanWalnutGüllaçWalnutMeghliWalnutSütlü NuriyeWalnutWaldorf SaladWalnutConnectionsAssociated WithWalnut Oil, Ingredients Well-attested Carries AllergenTree Nuts, Ingredients Well-attested Used ByAji de Gallina, Dishes Well-attested Chiles en Nogada, Dishes Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Chiles en nogadaFesenjan, Dishes Well-attested Güllaç, Dishes Well-attested Source Güllaç (Wikipedia)Meghli, Dishes Well-attested Source Meghli (Wikipedia)Sütlü Nuriye, Dishes Well-attested Source Sütlü Nuriye (Wikipedia)Waldorf Salad, Dishes Well-attested Source Waldorf salad (Wikipedia)Sources1.
