Almond flour is nothing more than a product obtained from ground almond seeds. This plant, belonging to the rose family, is naturally present in Asia Minor and Central Asia. However, today its numerous crops are also found in Europe (with a particular focus on the Mediterranean basin) . Unfortunately, the weather conditions in Poland are not favorable for growing this plant. Nevertheless, we can also find some representatives of this amazing tree in our country.
Almonds, as almond seeds are called, are considered one of the healthiest nuts. Interestingly, there are two varieties in the world. The first, characterized by a sweet taste, are widely used in cooking and it is from them that a tasty almond flour is produced. The second, characterized by a bitter taste, due to its high anti-cancer potential, is widely used in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. It is worth knowing that almonds and the flour made from them are not only tasty, but above all they are a real treasure trove of nutrients valuable for health. They include proteins and essential unsaturated fatty acids (including monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids) . This product is also capable of providing our body with valuable minerals, such as: magnesium, phosphorus, calcium and potassium as well as irreplaceable vitamins (with particular emphasis on vitamin E, considered by many to be the vitamin of youth).
Although almond flour was relatively popular on the Polish market for a relatively short time, it turns out that it was already in use as early as the 13th century. At the time, it was the basis of the Italian dessert, made of almond flour, eggs, butter, and sugar. Interestingly, St. Francis of Assisi. Medieval literature also contains information about the use of ground almonds to thicken soups and sauces. Almond flour is a creamy powder with a pleasant sweet taste.
