It wasn't until I was in my early twenties that I knew that the little brown nuts that I was eating at parties were dried almonds. The limp specimens that were on display at Fairway last week were, unfortunately, picked too young, and therefore, tasteless jelly. It takes a seasoned, wise (read: arab or eastern european) eye to know when the nutmeat is perfect - just opaque, neither jelly nor dried to brittle-ness. </p> http://www.gothamist.com/2007/04/21/green_almonds_a.php#comment-1072120 http://www.gothamist.com/2007/04/21/green_almonds_a.php#comment-1072120 Comments Sat, 21 Apr 2007 21:16:46 -0500 <p>Tried it years ago when they were available at Fairway.
