What is an easy way to sliver almonds?

Using a Food Processor:

1. Freeze Almonds: Place the almonds in the freezer for about 30 minutes. This helps them become brittle and easier to sliver.

2. Process in Batches: If you have a large amount of almonds, work in batches to avoid overcrowding the food processor.

3. Pulse: Use the pulse button to sliver the almonds. Avoid continuous processing, as it may turn the almonds into almond butter.

4. Check Consistency: Check the consistency of the slivered almonds after each pulse. Continue until they reach the desired size.

5. Transfer and Refrigerate/Freeze: Transfer the slivered almonds to a baking sheet or plate. Refrigerate them for immediate use or freeze them in airtight containers for longer storage.

Using a Sharp Knife:

1. Freeze Almonds: Similar to using a food processor, freeze the almonds for 30 minutes to make them more brittle.

2. Hold and Slice: Hold a small handful of almonds in one hand and use a sharp knife in the other hand to slice them into slivers.

3. Continue Slicing: Continue slicing the almonds until you reach the desired amount or consistency.

4. Transfer and Refrigerate/Freeze: Transfer the slivered almonds to a baking sheet or plate. Refrigerate them for immediate use or freeze them in airtight containers for longer storage.
