A delicious hot, creamy broth known as a “tea,” this is a popular banquet dessert that is also reputed to be a tonic for women who want to keep their dewy complexions. I know little about folk medicine, but my grandmother and mother looked ten years younger than their real ages, and both began their mornings with walnut tea. Beauty aside, walnut tea is delectable.
