Sprouting almonds

by Stephanie

Hi Amanda,

Thank you for all the information on your website. It is really helpful and interesting!

I have a question about sprouting almonds. I am not sure whether the almonds I have are really raw. They are not roasted or salted but the package does not say anything about them being pasturized.

I "sprouted" them according to your instructions by soaking them in water overnight. They also got larger and softer and I was able to peel off the skins. Can this be an indication that they are indeed raw? Or would pasturized almonds also react this way? I thought you might be able to answer this question based on your experience.

Thank you very much in advance!
