    Recipe developed by Heiko Antoniewicz for the California Walnut Commission 2020.

    Preparation

    Avocado Cream

    Halve the avocados, remove the skin and seed, add to a blender and blend until smooth. Season the mixture with lemon juice, walnut oil, salt and pepper. Fold in walnuts and seal in an air-tight container until needed.
     
    Soft Tacos

    As with noodle dough, combine and knead all ingredients for approx. 10 min. Let the dough stand for 30 minutes. Roll it out to a thickness of approx. 2-3 mm and brown lightly from both sides in a hot pan. Allow to cool and cut out with a cutter to desired size.
     
    Bell Pepper

    Wash bell pepper and roast in the oven as a whole at very high heat until skin is almost black. Allow bell pepper to cool and peel with the back of a knife (the skin should come off very easily), dice and season with remaining ingredients.
