Ulla, thanks for the tip. I like the idea of throwing them in
boiling water because too many raw nuts and seeds and I can get
diahrea. However, if you prepare almonds this way ahead of time, do
they get soggy on you???? I rinsed off some almonds, ate a few, left
the rest in a colandar and when I went to eat the rest later in the
day they were soggy. I didn't think an almond would absorb moisture
like that. I left them in a strainer type of bowl that had holes in
the bottom too. Do you eat them soggy like that???

A possibly more gentle (on the nutritious content) and just as
effective
method is bringing water to the boil, throwing in the almonds for a
"moment" (I think 10 seconds will do), and then immediately running
them
under cold water and voil¨¤, they peel easily...
(just saw Chloie's previous similar recommendation and
am "enlarging" it
now by recommending the subsequent cold water treatment ... this is
how I
was taught to easily peel almonds...)
