The texture of a walnut is softer than a pecan. When I think of pecan pie, it's the texture that I want to experience. Tastewise, I have to agree that walnuts are more bitter - but you never know some of the more popular foods today started out as mistakes or were experiments in the kitchen - Good Luck!

Walnuts are more bitter than pecans so before putting them into your recipe put them in a pan with butter and a little bit of brown sugar for just a couple of minutes.

You shouldn't have to do anything differently, except call it Walnut Pie.

Hold two pecans in the palm of your hand and squeeze. Hammer for walnuts.

It depends on the walnuts you use. Black walnuts have bitter skin so you want to blanch them and rub the skin off. Other walnuts you use them just as they are.

Don't think I would do anything differently. Sounds good, maybe I will try sometime. But I LOVE pecans!

Don't do anything different. It is wonderful, if you like walnuts.
