Soak walnuts in a bowl, covered with boiling water for at least 30 minutes. *See post for tips on prepping ahead
While soaking, add the brown sugar and seasonings to a bowl and stir to blend together and set aside.
Drain walnuts. Put them into a food processor and pulse until you have meat like crumbles. *Be careful not to over process or you will end up with walnut butter.
Into a skillet, add about olive oil and let heat over medium heat.
Add in walnut crumbles. Stir together.
Sprinkle seasoning across the crumbles and stir. Let cook for 2-3 minutes.
Add in the vegetable stock, coconut aminos and tapioca starch.
Let cook for another 7-10 minutes softened and browned.
Remove from heat and use as desired.
