Almond Flour and Almond Meal: What is the Difference?

An almond meal can be used as an alternative to almond flour. It can also be used in cooking and baking.

Almond flour can also be gluten-containing, which can make it difficult to digest. It is important to avoid gluten-free products if you have celiac or other digestive disorders.

While almond flour isn't considered a "superfood" per se, it contains healthy fats, fibre, protein, and vitamin E. It's also low in calories and sodium and contains 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 help to lower LDL (bad), and increase HDL levels.

Almond flour also contains antioxidants like phenolics and flavonoids. These compounds prevent free radical-induced oxidative stress.

In a study published in Journal of Agricultural Food Chemistry, almond flour was found to have an antioxidant activity comparable to blueberries, cranberries or pomegranates and red wine grapes juice.

Almond milk is often sold with almond flour, which has been fortified with additional nutrients.

How To

How to Make A Garlic Press

A garlic press is an essential tool for any home cook. It can be used to quickly mince garlic into a paste. It can also be used to crush whole garlic cloves into buttery spreads or garlic salt.

It's possible to be confused if you don’t yet own a garlicpress. Luckily, we've got some tips to help you get started.

First, you need a large dish. Place the bowl under the pressure regulator and pour the crushed garlic inside. Now adjust the pressure regulator to the maximum.

Next, move the handle clockwise so that you hear a click. The top of the press should lift up and expose a flat surface. This will allow you slide the blade back-and-forth over the bowl. Continue to turn the handle counterclockwise, until the blades are closed.

Finally, remove the pressed garlic.

Here are some more ways to use this versatile instrument:

• Make minced garlic soups, sauces for salads, dips and seasonings.
• To crush whole garlic cloves, use the press to create a buttery spread
• Crush whole cloves of garlic onto pizza dough before baking
• Make roasted garlic mashed potatoes, or creamy polenta.
• Use the press to mash garlic into homemade pesto
• Blend the garlic into a smooth vinegar dressing
