cooked Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Anybody tried this? After 6 months cultivation of 20 bushes, harvesting, cleaning and baking the nuts, I find that they taste DISGUSTING. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plukenetia_volubilis I am going to put them through the blender this morning but still suspect that the taste will not improve when added to food.

djayz Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 (edited) Mrs Djayz grew them for a few years here in Korat. I didn't mind eating them (well baked), but I wouldn't be nuts about them (pun intended). IF I understood her correctly, some of the villagers bought the nut shells which they used to make tea with... Apparently the nuts are worth a few bob.

Yes my wife makes tea also, don't know what it's supposed to be good for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
