Which one is better? Raw Almonds or Roasted Almonds

Firstly, it is obvious raw almonds are better and soaked are the best. When it comes to almond butter, you need to grind till almonds are super heated (steam rises when you open your mixers lid.) and releases oil. So raw or roasted does not matter much as they cook in mixer too.

Tips

  • Pre-heating almonds will speed up the process.
  • You can spread it on pancakes, crepe, toast, paratha or fruits.
  • You use it in making dips and sauces.
  • Or in soups and salads.

Steps of Almond Butter grinding.

Although, this grinding process requires a lot patience but the way it turns from powder to paste is amusing. And the aroma of roasted almond is enticing.

Notes

Strage tips

  • Store homemade nut butters in clean jar with tightly covered lid as exposure to oxygen can make it rancid. Alway use clean spoon for serving.
  • Keep all nut butters in fridge, and they are good for more than a month. If you like soft butter, you can store on counter top too for more than a week. If you want to store for longer, you can keep in freezer upto 3 months.
