There’s no honey in this honey walnut shrimp

Pat from Santa Monica had a plaintive plea: Dear SOS: Could you please get us the recipe for the delicious, mouth-watering Honey Shrimp with Walnuts at Typhoon restaurant at Santa Monica Airport? It’s to die for.

Luckily, Typhoon was happy to share the recipe with Test Kitchen Manager Noelle Carter, who adapted it for the home cook -- and found out that there isn’t actually any honey in this dish.

Do you have a Culinary SOS request? You can write to Noelle at noelle.carter@latimes.com and she’ll do her best to get the recipe.

In the meantime, here’s a look at several recent requests we’ve been able to answer.
