When my cousin bought the wrong almonds for my christmas baking I had visions of pots and boiling water and thought oh no!! I Found this method on veggieplatter blogspot.com and it's so super simple I had to share.
Steps
- 1
Place shelled almonds in microwave safe bowl and add enough tap water to really cover/submerge almonds well.
- 2
Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes.
- 3
Dump out water and rinse almonds (I used a strainer for this step).
- 4
To remove skin, gently squeeze almond between thumb and forefinger until almond slides out of skin. Repeat with remaining almonds.
- 5
Allow almonds to air dry a bit before using.
- 6
Use dry blanched almonds in recipes, to make almond meal/flour, almond paste or marzipan, or whatever your imagination can come up with!!!
