Frequently Asked Questions
Almond Flour and Almond Meal: What is the Difference?
Almond meal can be substituted for almond flour and is versatile enough to be used in baking, cooking and even making nut-free meals.
Almond flour can also contain gluten which makes it more difficult to digest. If you have celiac disease or another digestive disorder, it's essential to avoid gluten-free foods.
Almond flour isn’t considered a superfood per se but it does contain healthy fats, fibre and protein and no cholesterol.
The nutritional benefits of the almond meal include magnesium, copper, iron, zinc, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, and vitamins A, B1 (thiamin), and C. In addition, it provides 25 percent of the daily value for folate, 20 percent for niacin, 15 percent for pantothenic acid, and 5 percent for riboflavin.
Because it's made from almonds, almond flour contains monounsaturated fatty acids, while almond oil contains polyunsaturated fatty acids. Both types lower LDL (bad cholesterol) and increase HDL(good cholesterol).
Almond flour is also high in antioxidants, such as phenolics, flavonoids and proanthocyanidins. These compounds are effective in preventing oxidative damages caused by free radicals.
The Journal of Agricultural Food Chemistry published a study that found almond flour to have the same antioxidant activity as blueberries, cranberries and pomegranates.
Almond milk is often sold with almond flour, which has been fortified with additional nutrients.

How To
How to store spices for cooking?
Here's how to store your cooking spices for maximum performance. First, we must understand how food is stored.
Because spices lose their flavour when exposed to the sun, they are best kept out of reach from light. This is due to oxidation which occurs when oxygen combines with organic compounds such as those found in spices.
To avoid oxidation, spices must be kept in dark cupboards. Spices lose their flavor quickly if these conditions don't exist.
Keep spices fresh by storing them in airtight jars out of direct sunlight.
To make flavoured drinks, you can add herbs or spices to water. For example, you could mix 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon in 1/2 cup of warm milk and stir it well. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and serve immediately.
Dried herbs can be added to soups stews, casseroles pasta dishes rice dishes salads and desserts. Spread the spice mixture evenly onto the dish. Allow it to sit for between 5-10 minutes before serving.
You can add leftover cooked vegetables, fruits, meats and shellfish to your favorite recipes as snacks.
Fresh herbs and spices can be enjoyed by being chopped or broken up. It is also possible to freeze herbs and spices in muffin cups or ice cube trays. Transfer frozen items to zip-top or freezer bags.
