Despite their drab color, I find these quite beautiful!

I expect this one will be fairly easy, so the next one I post will be a bit harder.

Need a hint?

spoilerIt's in season right now, and is often cooked in a seasonal dish...

Maybe, but also my favorite, so I'm biased

Man, they are so good. Especially honey-roasted...

[-] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 3 points 3 days ago

Me too. I've been gleaning them from trees in alleys and getting ready to make a pie...

The only thing I hate about pecan pie is that people put so much damn sugar in it. They totally ruin it.

Walmart of all places started selling a low sugar pecan pie and it's delicious ๐Ÿ˜‹

Yeah I agree but when I make my own I do reduced sugar. Tasty.

As soon as I saw this in my feed, I felt like a kid again, sitting under the pecan tree in the backyard, bashing open the ones that had fallen to the ground with a rock while Dad and his best friend burned away the bagworms, and Mom checked the burgers on the grill that she refused to eat. "I grew up having to cook over a fire, I'll get my meals from the kitchen, thank you."
