How to make almond paste
Step 1
Start preparing the almond paste by cooking the almonds in a saucepan with boiling water for 3 minutes 1, then drain and dry them carefully with a kitchen towel.
Step 2
Boiling is essential to remove the outer skin effortlessly: just pinch the almonds between your thumb and forefinger and it will come off easily2. Make sure they are completely dry, otherwise put them in a hot oven at 100°C for a couple of minutes.
Step 3
At this point, combine the almonds in a kitchen mixer and blend them until you get a fine flour3. To prevent them from overheating and releasing the oil, cycle at even intervals, leaving a few seconds between each cycle.
Step 4
In a small saucepan, over medium heat, prepare a syrup with water and sugar. When the sugar has dissolved, add the vanilla extract and honey4.
Step 5
Then pour the almond flour into the syrup and mix well with a wooden spoon5.
