Whole Natural Almonds are shelled almonds with the skins left on, raw and unroasted. The skin gives a firmer bite and a faintly tannic edge that blanched almonds lack, which suits rustic baking: biscotti, florentines, granola bars and flapjacks all work better with a natural almond. Because they come raw, you decide the roast and the seasoning, so toast and salt them yourself, or leave them plain. Eat whole natural almonds straight from the bag, chop them over porridge and yoghurt, blend them into smoothies or home-made almond butter, grind them with the skins on for a speckled almond meal, or soak and blend them for dairy-free almond milk. They may contain shell fragments.
Key points:
