TIP: Ideally, your almonds will have been soaked beforehand. A good habit to develop is to keep soaked nuts in your fridge so you have them handy to grab. They keep for about a week. To soak, place in bowl and cover with cold water, then let them sit overnight (about 8 hours), then rinse and strain.
