Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:
Toasting Nuts
To toast almonds or other nuts, place them in a dry skillet over
medium heat and toss until fragrant and golden brown. You can
also microwave them for 3–4 minutes on low power until
fragrant. Finally, bake the nuts in a 350°F oven for 8–9 minutes,
shaking the pan occasionally, until the nuts are golden.
