Frequently Asked Questions
Almond Meal vs. Almond Flour: What's 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. Gluten-free foods should be avoided if you have celiac Disease or any other digestive condition.
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.
Almond meal has many nutritional benefits, including magnesium, copper and zinc as well as manganese and potassium.
Almond flour is made with almonds. Almond oils contain polyunsaturated essential fatty acids. Both can lower LDL cholesterol and increase HDL cholesterol.
Almond flour is also high in antioxidants, such as phenolics, flavonoids and proanthocyanidins. These compounds prevent free radical-induced oxidative stress.

Almond flour is usually sold alongside almond milk, fortified with additional nutrients.

How To
How to store cooking spices?
How to store cooking spices in a way that maximizes their performance. First of all, we need to establish an understanding of the science behind the storage of foodstuffs.
Keep spices out of direct sunlight as light will reduce their flavor. This is due to oxygen combining with organic compounds, such as spices.
To avoid oxidation, spice should be kept in dark cupboards. These conditions can cause spices to quickly lose their flavor.
It is the best way to preserve spices' flavours by keeping them out of direct sunlight.
For a flavoured beverage, add herbs and spices. For example, mix two teaspoons of ground cinnamon with 1/2 cup of warm water and stir well. Add a squeezed lemon juice and serve immediately.
You can add dried herbs and spices to soups, stews, casseroles, pasta, rice dishes, salads, and desserts. Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly on the dish, and let it sit for five to ten minutes before you serve.
As snacks, leftover cooked vegetables and fruits can be added into your favourite recipes.
If you want to take advantage of the flavours of fresh herbs and spices, chop or tear them up and add them to foods while they're still hot. Also, you can freeze herbs and spice by placing them into ice cube dishes or muffin cups. Once frozen, transfer to freezer bags or zip-top plastic bags.
