Frequently asked questions
How are almonds blanched?
The kernels are scalded in hot water or steam so the skin loosens, and are then dried. The almond remains raw.
Which variety gives the best blanched almond?
Nonpareil gives the most uniform, white kernel. For ground uses, other varieties give the same result at a better price.
Which size should I choose?
For almond biscuits and ground almonds size does not matter, so the smaller 30/32 and 32/34 pay off. For sugared almonds and decoration choose a larger size.
