I like to stock up on various bottles of local specialties wherever I go, and during that particular trip I found myself at a supermarket where I came across a bottle called \u201cnocino\u201d with an illustration of a walnut on it. I absolutely love hazelnut and almond liqueurs, so I figured a walnut one would be right up my alley. I grabbed it, wrapped it up tight with multiple sweaters, and nestled it in my suitcase, desperately hoping that the nearly black liquid it would make the journey home intact without leaking (both to spare my clothing and also so I\u2019d be able to taste this new-to-me concoction).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-24433\" src=\"https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-2.jpg\" alt=\"green young walnuts\" width=\"1929\" height=\"2700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-2.jpg 1929w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-2-607x850.jpg 607w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-2-768x1075.jpg 768w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-2-965x1350.jpg 965w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1929px) 100vw, 1929px\"\/>It made it safely all the way home to Portland, where I promptly opened the bottle, poured me and Jeremy a couple snifters\u2019 full, and feel deeply in love with this warming, spiced, and mysteriously dark beverage. The next time I went to Italy I asked my friend <a href=\"https:\/\/hortusblog.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Valentina<\/a> about it, and she explained that it was made from unripe green walnuts that are picked in spring and then soaked in a non-flavored liquor (like vodka) with spices for a long time. I tried to find another bottle of nocino on that trip, since I\u2019d long since finished the original one, but because it wasn\u2019t a specialty of the specific region I was in, it proved difficult to track down (the hyper localism of Italian food culture didn\u2019t work in my favor, at that particular moment). However, my last day there <a href=\"https:\/\/hortusblog.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Valentina<\/a> managed to track down a bottle and surprised me with it as a parting gift before I left to go back home.<\/p>\n<p>Since then I\u2019ve gone through that bottle and several more, some made locally here in the Pacific northwest, some from Bulgaria, and some from Croatia, but the Italian version is still my favorite. As a stubborn Greek with a bit of Italian in her, I\u2019ve always wanted to try my hand at making it from scratch, thinking that perhaps I could make it close to (or maybe even as good as) the delicious Mediterranean original. And then it so happened that on my morning run along the trail near my house, I saw little green orbs developing on the low and broad walnut tree whose two branches generously drape over the fence. Most walnut trees bear fruit only ever other year, and I knew this was my chance.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-24442\" src=\"https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino.jpg\" alt=\"green young walnuts\" width=\"1800\" height=\"2700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-567x850.jpg 567w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-900x1350.jpg 900w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-600x900.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\"\/>After scouring David Lebowitz\u2019s nocino recipe from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/0060191856\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Room for Dessert<\/a>, along with every other nocino recipe I could find in every corner of the internet, I put together a hybrid of all the spices that sounded particularly tasty along with my quartered green walnuts, lemon zest, and sugar. Now that it\u2019s all mixed together, I\u2019ll need to wait two months before straining it out and allowing it to age for a few more months again. But I know my patience will be rewarded at Christmas, when I get to crack it open and enjoy this spiced inky concoction. That\u2019s how it\u2019s traditionally done in Italy, the walnuts are harvested in the spring, allowed to steep in the liquor for a few months, then strained, then the nocino is sealed up and aged again for a few months, to be opened and shared at Christmastime gatherings.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll update this post again once I do the filtering in September and again in December once it\u2019s served, so stay tuned! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-24439\" src=\"https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-8.jpg\" alt=\"Nocino Recipe Italian Walnut Liqueur\" width=\"1800\" height=\"2700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-8.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-8-567x850.jpg 567w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-8-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-8-900x1350.jpg 900w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-8-600x900.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\"\/><\/h3>\n<h3>A Note on Green Walnut Harvesting &amp; Cutting for Nocino<\/h3>\n<p>Keep your eye out for any neighborhood walnut trees (if you\u2019ve ever found any walnuts buried in your garden, thank your neighborhood squirrels for cueing you in on the fact that there\u2019s some nearby.) It\u2019s time to harvest them when the green walnuts are about the size of a small lime. This falls between mid-May and early July, depending on how hot your spring is. If it\u2019s a warm Mediterranean-like spring, you\u2019ll be harvesting sometime between mid-May to mid-June. We had a *very* cool spring this year, so I didn\u2019t harvest them until the first week of July. The size is really the best measure of whether or not they\u2019re ready.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s better if they\u2019re a little too small than a little too big, because once they\u2019re big they begin to develop the hard internal shell of the walnut, and it makes cutting them into quarters super difficult and also really dulls down your knife. You also want to pick the walnuts that have little to no pock-marks on the outside and are a nice and vibrant green. You definitely don\u2019t want pests or worms contributing any off-flavors to the nocino as it\u2019s aging. And of course, you want to give them a good wash with cold water in a colander to make sure any pests, fungus, and bacteria are rinsed away.<\/p>\n<p>And lastly, wear dark clothing and use a cutting board you don\u2019t mind staining, because the slight juice released by the walnuts when you cut them will eventually turn whatever it touches black. This includes your hands, so either wash them regularly while you\u2019re cutting the walnuts, or wear gloves. And if you\u2019re using a favorite knife to cut them, clean it well immediately afterwards to prevent staining.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-24444\" src=\"https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-11.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1929\" height=\"2700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-11.jpg 1929w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-11-607x850.jpg 607w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-11-768x1075.jpg 768w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-11-965x1350.jpg 965w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1929px) 100vw, 1929px\"\/><\/p>\n<div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-24454\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"24454\" data-servings=\"0\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-simple\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-image-container\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-5-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Nocino Recipe Italian Walnut Liqueur\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-5-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/adventuresincooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Nocino-5-500x500.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"\/><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name\">Nocino &#8211;
