Salted Almonds - How to Make Roasted & Salted Almonds Recipe - Almendras con sal are simple to make salted almonds that are browned and salted in a hot skillet slicked with olive oil. Delicious as a quick snack.
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Almonds
- 1 Teaspoon Extra-virgin olive oil
- 0.5 Teaspoon Rock Salt
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil over medium high in a large cast iron or other heavy skillet, tilting the pan so the oil coats the bottom.
- Add the almonds and spread along the bottom. Leave for 1 to 2 minutes until they start to colour and get fragrant.
- Sprinkle the salt over the nuts and stir
- Keep stirring every 30 seconds or so, until they are nicely brown and have a deeply toasted flavour.
- Once done turn off the flame & let the almonds cool in the skillet.
- Store in a jar with a lid in the refrigerator.
Notes
- An alternate approach for roasted salted almonds (almendras con sal) - For people who enjoy an egg white gloss on almonds.
- Simply dry roast the almonds in the skillet without the olive oil.
- Dip the almonds in an egg wash made with egg whites (2 eggs) & little water and dust them with salt.
- The salt will stick to the almonds & give them a salty jacket.
- The heat will also dry them and your salted almonds will be good to go.
