Almond Meal vs. Almond Flour: What's the Difference?

As an almond flour alternative, an almond meal is more versatile because it can be used for baking, cooking, and even making nut-free dishes.

Almond flour can also be gluten-containing, which can make it difficult to digest. Gluten-free foods should be avoided if you have celiac Disease or any other digestive condition.

Although almond flour isn’t considered to be a “superfood”, it is rich in healthy fats and fibre.

Almond meal has many nutritional benefits, including magnesium, copper and zinc as well as manganese and potassium.

Almond flour is made from almonds and contains monounsaturated fat acids. Almond oil, however, contains polyunsaturated oils. Both types reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol and increase HDL ("good") cholesterol.

In addition, almond flour is rich in antioxidants, including flavonoids, phenolics, 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 flour is commonly sold together with almondmilk, which has additional nutrients.

What is the importance of spices?

Spices are seasonings that enhance the flavour of food. Spices can be powdered, liquids or oils. They are also called condiments and flavours.

You can spice up meals to make them more interesting. To add more flavour and excitement to dishes, many spices can be used.

It may be that adding a few drops to your bowl of soup makes it more flavorful. You could also add a few cayenne peppers to a cup of rice.

Fresh ingredients are the best option to spice up your recipes. If you buy dried herbs, look for those that are organic. Fresh herbs can last for longer than dried.

While some spices are essential for cooking, others might be better to avoid. If you have a history or liver disease, cinnamon sticks can be dangerous. Ginger also has coumarin, although it's less concentrated. It's safe for those without any history of liver problems.

How do I make Thai food at home using Thai spices?

For authentic Thai cooking at home, you need to be familiar with five essential spices: cayenne, coriander, turmeric, cinnamon, and black pepper. Each ingredient is unique and plays an integral role in the creation of delicious dishes.

Black pepper enhances the savoury flavors of curry powder, while cinnamon gives it sweetness. Coriander seeds provide a spicy kick and turmeric gives curry powder the yellow color it is known for. Cayenne peppers add heat, while cilantro brings out the freshness. The final touch is cinnamon which gives depth and complexity to any dish.

Each of these spices can be found at your local grocery, but you may prefer to buy them online.

How To

How do you make a garlic press?

A garlic press is an essential tool for any home cook. This allows you to quickly mince garlic and make smooth sauces, soups, and salad dressings. You can also crush whole garlic cloves to make buttery spreads or garlic seasonings.

It's possible to be confused if you don’t yet own a garlicpress. Here are some tips to get you started.

First things first: you'll need a large bowl. Place the bowl under the pressure regulator and pour the crushed garlic inside. Now adjust the pressure regulator to the maximum.

Next, turn the handle counterclockwise until you hear a click. You will be able to slide the blade over the bowl by lifting the top part of your press. Continue to turn the handle counterclockwise, until the blades are closed.

Finally, take out the pressed ginger and enjoy!

Here are some more ways to use this versatile instrument:

• Make minced garlic soups, sauces for salads, dips and seasonings.
• Use the press to crush whole garlic cloves into 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 make homemade pesto out of garlic
• Puree garlic and make a smooth dressing
