    ARMENIAN WALNUTS, STEEPED IN SYRUP

    They look like black olives, but they are whole walnuts, picked green
    in the Ararat Valley of Armenia, and steeped in sugar syrup until
    they turn lush, sweet, tender and irresistible, a little like marrons
    glaces, only moister. They are made by Harvest Song, a company that
    specializes in excellent Armenian preserves. The walnuts are a perfect
    foil for pungent cheeses, pāte or roast duck or game. You can also
    nibble them after dinner or slice them to decorate pumpkin pie. And
    that manhattan? Drop a preserved walnut in the glass instead of a
    maraschino cherry.
