Tasmanian Pickled Walnuts

Coaldale Pickled Walnuts are a traditional English-style pickle with a vinegary tang and a uniquely rich and complex flavour. The walnuts are harvested while still green, before their shells form, and pickled using an old, hand-written recipe passed down through generations of the Dening family.

The pickling process begins at Christmas time, when each walnut is hand-picked, sorted, and carefully pricked to allow the brine to penetrate fully. The process results in tender, dark black walnuts with a deep, tangy, slightly sweet flavour.

Serving Suggestions

• Slice thinly and pair with aged cheddar for a bold contrast of flavours.
• A perfect addition to a Ploughman’s Platter, alongside crusty bread, pickles, and cheeses.
• Serve with terrines, pâtés, or cured meats for a refined charcuterie selection.
• Enhance the richness of braised meats and ham with their tangy depth.
• Add to salads for a unique flavour and texture.
