Guest guest Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 I haven't actually started the diet, but have been trying to read up on it and prepare to start it. In the book it stated blanched almond flour was legal. Why is the flour supposed to be blanched? Is it easier to digest without the skins on? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it easier to digest without the skins on?It is, and also I think the baked goods turn out better without the skins. Actually, I havent even seen almond flour that wasn't blanched. Ive seen almond meal that isn't blanched, but not almond flour. Peace =)Alyssa 15 yoUC April 2008, dx Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted)No meds!
