I now buy my nuts pre-chopped. I can't tell you the length of time I have stood in the kitchen chopping almonds, hazelnuts and so on for a recipe! It's saves sooo much time. Because nuts contain a lot of oil, they can go rancid very quickly. But did you know your nuts can be kept nice and fresh stored in a freezer for up to 2 years.
Cute!
ReplyDeleteI buy them pre-chopped too. Was too fed up with them bouncing all over the place when I tried to use the rocking-knife-on-a-board technique all the tv chefs use.
