I found this below while reading an article on Almonds. I think this will answer any questions on why the brown coating on almonds should be removed : “Almonds are usually difficult for most people to digest because of an enzyme-inhibiting substance in their brown coating. Soaking or sprouting removes this inhibitor so that the enzymes secreted during digestion can do their job”.

Blessings! I tried your recipe this weekend and how many ways can I say YUMMY! for the TUMMY!! Thank you for posting this. It was the easiest. I did not peel the skins as they would be strained anyway and figured there must be some sort of nutrients that come from it. Thank you.

Skins increase overall goodness of almond milk. Also we have to filter out the pulp to extract the milk. So I chose not to peel the skins. But if you prefer, please go ahead.

Thanks all for your good words on this recipe. Like Roma has written, almond milk is good in place of regular milk and soymilk. and there aren’t any known harmonal effects too.

Hi Arundhati: I remember you. it’s good to see you back to blogging.

Hi Elena: Glad to read that you find the content at Mahanandi useful. Thank you for your good words.

An excellent recipe Indira! I might try this real soon. I also like the idea of adding the ground almond to curries - will make a good substitute for coconut.

Ah, Indira! Your blog is wonderful–so beautiful and very delicious-looking. I just wanted to say thanks for all you have posted. I’ve been seeing an Indian man for awhile now and didn’t know anything about Indian cooking before I found this site. Your blog has given us many wonderful meals together. The pictures you take of the food you make have really helped me navigate through the confusing world of Indian ingredients and cooking vocabulary. Thank you so much!
