Guest guest Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Tahira, It's my opinion that if someone is using a lot of almonds (or any nuts, really) it is probably worth it to buy them whole, soak adn dry them to remove phytic acid, lectins, etc., and then grind them with a food processor. Even people with really healthy guts will often have trouble digesting seeds (nuts are seeds) because of the enzyme inhibitors in seeds. If you have a damaged gut, or a restricted diet with high lectins (as in nuts) then the lectins can cause lots of problems too. There is also the rancidity issue with nut flours. If you use a lot, even if you have to buy a food processor to make the flour you'll still save money in the long run buying bulk almonds and making your own flour. I make it in about 2 pound batches and keep it in the fridge. Even with the soaking and drying, it's very little extra work.
