What it is

Almonds are tree nuts that grow on the *Prunus dulcis* tree. Blanching removes the brown skin, and roasting brings out a nutty flavor and crisp texture. This process is often done using dry heat or oil.

Why it's used

Blanched roasted almonds are used for their flavor and texture in a variety of foods. They are commonly found in nut butters, baked goods, snack mixes, and as a topping for desserts and yogurts.

Health notes

Almonds are recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for general food use. They are a source of healthy fats, fiber, protein, vitamin E, and magnesium. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated almonds and their components. While generally considered healthy, they are calorie-dense.

Allergen info

Almonds are tree nuts, which are one of the 9 FDA major allergens. They do not contain gluten.
