This is a very simple and a quick process.You don't have to soak almonds overnight.I have given here the most easiest and quickest way of blanching almonds.
Steps
- Take water in a pan and add the almonds to be blanched to the water.
- Boil the water for about 2 mins.
- Remove the pan from flame and strain the almonds from the hot water.
- Wash almonds once again with cold water to cool them.
- With your index and thumb finger,peel the almond skin and it comes off at ease:)
Note: The same above process is used for blanching pistachios as well.After blanching,pistachios are dark parrot green in color.
