Almonds
Anyone tried this? We've been doing it for years, absolutely delish.1. Go to Holland & Barrett, get big bag of almonds, shelled but in their brown skin.
2. Place some in bowl, add boiling water, leave for 5 min, drain, squeeze white nut out of skin. If not skinning easily, return to bowl, add more boiling water.
3. Place, slightly soft & sticky nuts into dry frying pan, warm on a low heat for 8-10 mins, tossing every 20-30 secs.
4. Allow to cool.
5. Enjoy.

You are showing a small pack of almonds, I'm saying a big pack is better value. Almonds have special qualities, there might be something in the small print.
You are showing a breakdown of a very different product,. These have nothing added and they are not fried.

Re: Almonds
If you are having to watch your diet for health reasons then do so.I recommend having a few or mixing these with with other nibbles like salted peanuts, cashews, pistachios and the above frying pan full will last a family of two a month as an early evening snack with a long cool glass.
