Take 1,2,3..

Take 1 large tub of almonds...

1 handy sized stone...

1 sunny spot...

a solid work surface...

and a good dollop of sunlotion...



2 hours later you have...

3 jars of shelled almonds..

and 5 litre cartons of almond shells ready for next years wood burner.

and possibly if you've not been careful,  you have a sore finger or two where you've missed the almond when trying to crack the shell   :(

But after blanching,  we toast the almonds in a little garlic oil with salt, black pepper and cumin.  Yummy  tapas.
