Wasabi Almonds

These can be made at home instead of paying exorbitant prices that the shops charge for these yummy, healthy snacks. Make more than you think you need, because they do not last long. 🙂

Ingredients

1 egg white
1 Tbsp water
1 lb natural almonds (brown skin on)
2 Tbsp  Namida® 100% Pure Wasabi Powder
2 tsp coarse salt
2 tsp cornstarch

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 135°C (275°F).
  2. Line a baking sheet with Release Foil or lightly greased foil or lightly greased parchment paper.
  3. Whisk the egg white and water together until foamy.
  4. Add almonds and toss to coat.
  5. Place almonds in a sieve to allow excess egg white to drain off toss lightly as you are draining them.
  6. Stir together the Namida® 100% Pure Wasabi Powder, cornstarch and salt in a large bowl or zip lock plastic bag.
  7. Add almonds and toss to coat.
  8. Spread the almonds on the baking sheet single layer and bake for 30 minutes.
  9. Stir gently lower heat to 95°C (200°F) and continue baking for a further 20 minutes.
  10. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  11. Serve now or store in an airtight container for up to a week.

Our experience is that these do not last a week with the kids getting into them. 🙂
