Almond flakes (for sprinkling)

Description

Almond flakes are thin, creamy-white slices with a delicate, nutty note and a pleasant crunch that release a more intense aroma and golden color when toasted. Their subtle flavor adds elegance to both sweet and savory dishes without overpowering the composition. Nutritionally, almond flakes provide monounsaturated fats, protein, fiber, vitamin E, magnesium, and antioxidants, supporting heart health, maintaining a feeling of fullness, and balancing glycemic levels with moderate consumption. In the kitchen, they are great for sprinkling on salads, breakfast cereals, desserts, cakes, roasted vegetables, and fish; they can be added before or after baking, and toasted ones bring out the full flavor. To maintain freshness, store the flakes in an airtight container in a cool, dry, and dark place, and for longer storage, keep them in the refrigerator or freezer to prevent rancidity.
