About Almonds (Whole)

Fill the cup with whole almonds without pressing or trying to nest them tightly. If the recipe calls for a cup of chopped almonds, prepare that form before measuring rather than filling with whole nuts.

Shape matters for both measuring and cooking: thin slices toast differently from whole almonds and distribute differently in a topping. Keep the requested cut instead of relying on weight alone to reproduce the texture.

Tips for measuring Almonds (Whole)

Remove shell fragments before weighing or filling the cup.
