Almond flakes
Description
Almond flakes are thinly sliced, slightly creamy flakes with a delicate, nutty flavor and subtle sweetness. They have a pleasant crunchy-soft texture when toasted and a light beige color that beautifully decorates dishes. They are rich in monounsaturated fats, plant protein, fiber, vitamin E, magnesium, and calcium, which support heart health, act as antioxidants, help control appetite, and stabilize blood sugar levels. In the kitchen, almond flakes work well in baked goods, salads, muesli, as a topping for yogurt, for breading fish and poultry, as well as in desserts and creams. It is best to store them in an airtight container in a cool, dry, and dark place; in warmer climates, it is advisable to keep them in the refrigerator or freezer to avoid rancidity and maintain freshness.
