Depends on the nuts . The harder they are th eless soggy they become. Best is to use caramelised nuts. Otherwise they can be a little soggy if they are walnuts or pistachio, for example. If oyu have the possibility, can you add them tomorrow?

well i am not certian this will work but its worth a try, you know when you make noodle soup the noodles will stay more firm and not totaly inflate and be soggy if you cook them in oil first, because the oil keeps the water from getting in. so maybe if you cook the nuts in oil first and drain them very well, they wont be soggy when you put them into the filling.
