Steps
- 01
Check walnuts for hard shell fragments and break into bite-size pieces. Plum syrup may be omitted, but the tart fragrance will be reduced.
- 02
Mix 1 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp syrup, 2 tsp plum syrup and 1 tsp each vinegar, brown sugar and ginger.
- 03
Gently simmer the sauce in a skillet over medium-low heat until slightly thickened; reduce heat before sugars scorch.
- 04
Add walnuts, turn gently for 2–3 minutes until evenly glazed, then turn off the heat.
- 05
Spread apart on parchment or a plate and cool fully. Top with optional sesame. Do not touch hot syrup.
Before you cook
Check tree-nut, soy, possible wheat and optional sesame allergens. Remove shell fragments, cool syrup fully, and avoid serving whole walnuts to very young children due to choking risk.
