To preserve roasted almonds and maintain their freshness and flavour, make sure to let them cool completely and store in an airtight container. In fact, letting the sweet nuts cool will help prevent condensation inside the container. Also, it is recommended to keep the nuts in a cool, dry place, away from heat and direct sunlight. The room temperature is generally ideal because the humidity in the refrigerator can soften or alter the texture of the nuts. SIMPLY DELICIOUS: You love good recipes that have a sweet touch?

It is essential to control the cooking of the caramel to perfection in order to obtain the right consistency and distinct flavor of homemade maple syrup caramel. Once the caramel has reached the boiling point, it begins to take on a golden color, becomes thicker and gives off a delicious aroma. However, the time between the perfect golden color and the stage where the caramel becomes burnt is very short. Moreover, the difference between a perfectly cooked caramel and a burnt caramel can be reduced to a few seconds. It is therefore very important to watch the recipe while cooking.
