About Almonds
Almonds are the edible kernels of the almond tree, sold whole, sliced, chopped, ground, or as flour. They are commonly eaten as a snack and used in baking, confectionery, sauces, and other cooking. Whole kernels are firm and crisp, with a mild, nutty flavour; their thin brown skins may be left on or removed by blanching.
Commercial forms include raw or roasted kernels, with or without skins, as well as processed almond products. Roasting changes flavour and texture, while grinding changes the physical form. Nutrition comparisons should account for whether almonds are whole, blanched, roasted, salted, or further processed, rather than treating all almond products as equivalent.
