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.

Sprinkle seasoning across the crumbles and stir. Let cook for 2-3 minutes.
Add in the vegetable stock, coconut aminos and tapioca starch.
