Post #1 - April 18th, 2007, 9:19 pmHi friends!
I'm on a baking kick and have decided to try making macarons at home. One of the key ingredients is almond flour. I've looked online and the average about $10/pound. Is almond flour really that expensive or is there a cool place that sells it for less? Thanks!"There is no love sincerer than the love of food." - George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) Irish writer.

Make your own almond flour or almond meal by pulsing blanched almonds (whole, sliced, or slivered) in small batches in a food processor.

Post #4 - April 19th, 2007, 3:20 pmDoes that mean that expensive and sometimes-hard-to-find chestnut flour is just finely ground chestnuts?
How would one make it? Do you cook or boil or roast chestnuts first? Then grind?
Any help is appreciated. I have a gnocchi recipe I have always wanted to try. --Joy
