What is it?
This popular nut is the seed kernel from a fruit similar to peaches and apricots. Almonds are used in both sweet and savory cooking. Fresh almonds have a mild flavor that’s intensified when toasted. A variety known as bitter almonds is not eaten fresh, but is used to make extract.
全年可用的杏仁在11月的高峰收获。尽管您可以在硬壳中找到它们,但您通常会以几种形式看到它们被炮击:整个,滑动和切成薄片。
厨房数学:
5至5-1/2盎司(整个外壳)= 1杯切碎= 1杯加2汤匙。切碎= 1-1/4杯地面
Don’t have it?
您通常可以用核桃或榛子代替杏仁;味道会有所不同,但效果会相似。
如何选择:
购买整个杏仁时,请寻找丰满,不间断的肉豆蔻。避免那些变色或萎缩。如果您能够在购买前品尝杏仁,请选择甜美脆脆的坚果。腐烂的坚果具有苦,油腻的味道。
如何准备:
腐烂的螺母会破坏原本准备完美的菜肴,因此在使用之前,请务必从批次上品尝几个坚果。在家里的皮肤杏仁中,将沸腾的水倒在它们上,然后让它们静置几分钟,然后滑下皮肤,然后将螺母涂成螺母。如果立即使用,您可能需要在低烤箱中干燥几分钟。要烤杏仁,请在一面烤盘上撒在单个烤盘中,然后在350°F烘烤,直至香气淡淡的金色。
如何存储:
因为它们含有油,所以杏仁会变得腐烂。将它们放在凉爽的干燥位置长达几个月。要进行更长的存储空间,请将它们密封在冰箱中。
