Ingredients
- Almonds
- Boiling water
Preparation
Step 1
Place almonds in a bowl
Pour boiling water to barely cover almonds
Let the almonds sit for 1 minute and no longer
Drain, rinse under cold water, and drain again.
Pat dry and slip the skins off.
Tips: Don't let the almonds sit in hot water too long or they will lose their crispness. One pound of almonds in the shell will yield about 1 1/2 cups shelled. One pound shelled = 3 cups whole or 4 cups slivered.
