If you want to make roasted almonds you must use some elbow grease. Use a big pot, then the almonds want get so easily burnt. If you use a cast iron pot it will be even easier. A teaspoon or two of cinnamon makes the almonds extra Christmassy and you can try adding other flavours as well.

    Retro recipes are great, and so is anything with nuts. It’s always good to have some flavoured nuts to pass around at a party. Thanks for bringing them along to Fiesta Friday.
