Preparation & Use

These blanched sliced almonds are supplied ready to use. For raw applications such as salad garnishes or dessert toppings, portion directly from the case. To deepen flavor and add crunch, toast the slices in a dry pan over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently, or spread on a sheet pan and bake at 325°F for 8 to 10 minutes until lightly golden. Watch closely during toasting, as the thin slices brown quickly. Once toasted, cool completely before storing in an airtight container to maintain crispness. For coating applications, press the slices onto prepared proteins or vegetables before cooking. Store unopened in a cool, dry place; refrigerate or freeze after opening to preserve freshness over extended use periods.

Common Applications

Common applications include almond-topped layer cakes, fruit tart garnishes, chicken almondine, green bean almondine, rice pilaf add-ins, acai bowl and smoothie bowl toppings, breading blends for fried seafood, artisan bread inclusions, biscotti and cookie dough mix-ins, and yogurt parfait bar offerings. The blanched, skin-free profile makes these slices particularly well suited to recipes where visual contrast matters, such as white-frosted cakes, light-colored batters, and delicately plated restaurant courses.
