Walnuts threaded on a string, dipped in thickened grape juice, and air-dried — a traditional Georgian sweet.
🚧 The Storage app is currently in development. Please check back soon.
Often nicknamed \'Georgian candles\' for their shape, these are traditionally made in bulk during the grape harvest. Because drying makes them shelf-stable, they've long served as travel food and a way to preserve the season's grape harvest through winter.
Thread the walnuts onto a skewer or thick string so the pieces connect.
Simmer the grape juice in a pot and whisk in the flour to thicken it.
Dip the threaded walnuts into the thickened juice.
Hang to dry, redipping every few hours until the surface sets.
Air-dry in a well-ventilated spot for 2–3 days until firm.
Cut to the desired length to finish.
