Any source of TRUE raw unpasteurized almonds??
-
@RhiosRawEnergy Hmm that is definately interesting. I read about stores deliberately trying to fool their customers about marking things as raw when they were not, but over here in Europe we tend to think that sort of stuff only happends "with the crazy people over in America".
I've asked in the store, (wich has started asking me stuff their other customers ask in return LOL) but I'll make sure to find out who their supplier is and ask them too.

@Tornerose83 Before I found the farmer where I buy my raw almonds direct, I was purchasing almonds that were imported from Italy & I found that those popped too after soaking... so I don't know if they are being treated in some way when they come into the country. They were marked "raw" but they were not.
I do not know what the situation is in Spain. You need to ask some questions where you purchase and/or write to the company in Spain and just ask them. Hopefully they will tell you the truth

Ok that is weird. Here in Norway, most almonds we get are from Spain, and they have 2 boxes in the store, one that says "pasturised" and one that says "untreated" or something to that extent...
I thought this was only an issue with California Almonds?

If the skin pops off after soaking overnight, then I'm afraid you do not have "raw" almonds. I have been working with raw almonds for a long time, and they never pop after soaking. You can peel them, but it is tedious. By law, since 2009, all US almonds are either pasteurized or treated with a toxic fumigant, propylene oxide, and they are still allowed to call them raw. What deceitfulness!! One exception, you can buy raw almonds from the farmer direct or farmer's market.

It keeps for approx. 3-5 days in the refrigerator.
Rhio: You are just delightful. And this is such a helpful video: I'm going to make this as soon as the nuts are soaked. - Victoria Moran

@rawcharmer Thank you Victoria. Since we're having a heat wave now, your yogurt might be done sooner.
