    Hi,

    Does anyone know where (or when) I can find fresh walnuts in the Chicagoland area? This is for jam and tart recipes from Christine Ferber's wonderful books. We have only been able to find dried walnuts, even at the farmer's markets we frequent.

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    Are looking for green walnuts? I don't think you would find any right now fresh from a tree. This would be in fall. Of course, there can always be someplace out there offering frozen walnuts.

    Regards,

    It's unclear to me what you mean by "fresh" vs. "dried", but if you mean that you want walnuts in the shell as opposed to out of the shell, they are available at most larger Mexican grocery stores.
