YES! To my tongue, walnuts are not as sweet. Pecans have a special
flavor. When baked in such a pie, they also soften a bit which makes
them easier to cut and chew.

Of course. Most recipes call for dark. My Mom started using light and
we preferred it that way. Heck, if you really wanted dark, I suppose
you could use molasses. Yech.

| 3336.2 | Toasted walnut pie with maple | MCIS5::CORMIER | | Fri Nov 22 1991 09:13 | 6 |
| Try toasting the walnuts first. It makes a nice flavor change. Also add
a dash of maple extract. Yummy! Not "pecan pie", but definitely a
winner.
PS
Break the walnuts halves in half (I guess that means walnut
"quarters"), or you'll have a difficult time slicing the pie.

| 3336.3 | Try Maple Sirup | LANDO::EBENS | Mary Jean Ebens - BXB2-2/G06 | Wed Jan 08 1992 12:44 | 4 |
| Try substituting real maple sirup for some of the "sirup". Makes it
extra yummy.

| 3336.4 | Or even syrup | 16316::NOBLE | Those guys! They're so 90s! | Thu Jan 09 1992 10:22 | 2 |
| Better yet, try real maple syrup.

| 3336.5 | less elegant, for sure | 16316::DDESMAISONS | | Thu Jan 09 1992 16:21 | 11 |

>> Better yet, try real maple syrup.
Uh-oh, you could be in trouble here, Robert. "Sirup" is
a variant. (Maybe not in "Chambers").
