Product details

Description

A Fastachi salted almond may begin like any other California almond, but our almond certainly does not taste like any other almond. Fastachi roasted & salted almonds, like all of our fresh roasted & salted nuts, are hand-roasted using only sea salt to bring out the true essence of the nut and hand-packed for your enjoyment.

A one-ounce serving of almonds provides 75 milligrams of calcium (the highest of all nuts), 35 percent of your daily requirement for vitamin E, 76 milligrams of magnesium, and 200 milligrams of potassium. They are also loaded with fiber and healthy fats. Almonds help lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease, and can help protect against diabetes.

Almond Fact: The almond tree was brought to California from Spain in the mid-1700s.

Are Salted Almonds Healthy?

Yes, salted almonds can be a healthy snack if you use them in moderation. Almonds are rich in protein, fiber, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals, making them a healthy and nutritious choice. They provide long-lasting energy, making them a great option for snacking. Pairing them with a balanced diet ensures you get the most out of their health benefits.

How Does Roasting Impact the Nutritional Value of Almonds?

Roasting almonds enriches their rich flavor, and crisp texture, making them even more enjoyable. While they may contain slightly more fat and calorie content than raw almonds, the difference is minimal. It is recommended to roast almonds at low to medium temperatures to preserve their nutritional value.

Do Roasted and Salted Almonds Help You Eat Less Calories?

Roasted and salted almonds are a low-carb snack rich in protein and fiber, which can help you feel fuller for longer. This may help you consume fewer calories overall.

These are the world's best almonds! Everyone who tastes them agrees. I have grocery stores and gourmet shops all around me, but I choose to get my almonds by mail from Fastachi.
