Yield 12 bowls

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/2 cups walnut halves (9 ounces)
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup ruby port
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 bay leaf
One 1-pound wedge of Stilton cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Spread the walnuts on a rimmed baking sheet and toast for 8 minutes, or until lightly browned. 2. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, combine the sugar, port, pepper and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Discard the bay leaf. 3. Add the walnuts to the saucepan, stirring to evenly coat them. Using a slotted spoon, drain the nuts very well. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the walnuts on it in a single layer. Bake for 12 minutes, stirring once, or until the nuts are mostly dry; let cool. Separate any nuts that stick together. 4. Meanwhile, simmer the syrup over low heat until it is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 3 minutes. 5. Set the Stilton on a serving platter and place the walnuts in a separate bowl. Drizzle the port syrup over the cheese and serve with the nuts. Make Ahead The nuts can be stored in an airtight container for up to 1 day. The port syrup can be refrigerated for up to 1 day; rewarm before serving.

I've never been a big fan of walnuts, but these port-glazed walnuts are amazing. I could eat them all day long.

These walnuts are a great way to use up leftover port. I always have a bottle of port on hand for cooking, and this is a great way to use it up.

I love the combination of sweet and savory in this recipe. The port glaze is rich and flavorful, and the Stilton cheese adds a nice salty tang.
