Yup, remember those. They can be eaten raw in salads, also when lightly
blanched, pickled like green walnuts, and they make a very respectable
compost like the ones found in the Forme of Cury and in Le Menagier
(okay, the Menagier version has the steeped immature nuts, but you can
parboil them like the other ingredients in the FoC version, and proceed
with that version to get a final product that is pretty similar to the
Menagier version). (If that makes any sense. You're not the only one in
need of some tea.)
