Notes
Keep the almond pulp and dehydrate it to use as defatted almond meal in other recipes, like our Vegan Berry Smoothie, Almond Hummus, Almond Facial, and Almond Chocolate Chip Cookies.
What is the difference?? … What is boiling if not placing a food in boiling water?!!
Actually the temperature that nutritional value starts to diminish is 115/120 C, not 100. Excalibur, the company that makes the best dehydrators in the world did studies to prove this.
My blender does not have whole juice button. It is the costco model. WHat would I do instead?
Blend on medium for 50-60 seconds.
Actually, if you soak the almond nuts for at least 24 hrs., the skin easily comes off. As a result, you also don’t have to strain the blended nuts with a milk bag or a cheesecloth. Just put 4 cups of water, 1 cup of skinless almond nuts, agave nectar, vanilla extra and salt in the jar and press "Whole Juice." It can’t be easier than that.
