Almonds in shell, as nature creates.
The almonds in shell are an explosion of unique flavors in which all the genuineness of nature is evident. After harvesting in our fields in Puglia, the almonds are brought to our company and deprived of the husk and leaves. Here they are dried in the sun and only then are carefully selected.
The shelled almonds are a mine of vitamins, antioxidants, minerals, such as potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, calcium and iron, which are precious for the health of the body, especially in times of greater mental and physical stress. They are an excellent source of Omega 3, useful for the proper functioning of the heart and brain and also provide many fibers.
Eating 20-30 grams per day would be ideal for our health!
WHY BUY ALMONDS IN SHELL
The almonds in shell keep the genuine and authentic flavor of the fruit unaltered with its rich and delicate aromatic notes. The hard and smooth shell, with small pores and a pointed end, protects the almonds from any external agent and the fruit remains “protected”. Dried fruit, such as almonds and walnuts, have now fully entered our daily diet. It is therefore important to buy ingredients that are as natural and healthy as possible. The almond, enclosed in its shell, is excellent for its organoleptic qualities and contains countless nutrients. Its properties have been appreciated since ancient times. The almond tree is in fact native to Asia and it is assumed that it was already cultivated in the Bronze Age. For millennia the almond has been metaphorically considered a symbol of hope, rebirth and luck.
