Toast them!
Toasting nuts intensifies their flavor.
Toasted nuts are less likely to sink in cake and bread batters.
Almond yields: 1 pound = 3 cups halves or 4 cups slivered.
Saucepan method:
Place almonds in a heavy, ungreased skillet. Stir often over medium heat until golden brown.
Oven method:
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread nuts in one layer on ungreased shallow baking pan. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden.
Microwave method:
Place 1/2 cup slivered almonds and 1 tablespoon margarine or butter in a 9-inch microwave-proof pie plate. Microwave on high, stirring every minute until brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
