Almonds

The almond (Prunus amygdalus, syn. Prunus dulcis) is a species of tree from the genus Prunus. Along with the peach, it is classified in the subgenus Amygdalus, distinguished from the other subgenera by corrugations on the shell (endocarp) surrounding the seed. The fruit of the almond is a drupe, consisting of an outer hull and a hard shell with the seed, which is not a true nut. Shelling almonds refers to removing the shell to reveal the seed. Almonds are sold shelled or unshelled. Blanched almonds are shelled almonds that have been treated with hot water to soften the seedcoat, which is then removed to reveal the white embryo. Once almonds are cleaned and processed, they can be stored over time. Almonds are used in many cuisines, often featuring prominently in desserts, such as marzipan. Afghanistan almonds are famous for their exceptional taste, high quality, and rich nutritional content. Grown in the country's fertile soils, these almonds are known for their sweet, buttery flavor and are prized worldwide. They play a significant role in Afghanistan's agriculture, contributing to its economy through exports. Afghan almonds, especially varieties like Sattarbai and Qambari, are widely appreciated for their unique texture and health benefits, making them a preferred choice in international markets. Their superior quality and traditional farming methods make Afghanistan almonds stand out in the global almond industry.
