Almonds (Badam)

Almonds (Badam)

Crunchy, mildly sweet, and nourishing, almonds are a timeless favourite in Indian households. Used in sweets, gravies, kheer, and daily snacking, Badam adds richness, texture, and natural goodness to both traditional and modern recipes.

Myth Buster:
❌ Eating almonds only benefits when consumed soaked
✅ Truth: Soaked almonds aid digestion, but dry almonds are equally nutritious when eaten in moderation.

Chef’s Tip:
Lightly roast or blanch almonds to enhance flavour and make them easier to grind for desserts and gravies.
