Recipe

Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 15 mins Ready Time: 1 hr 25 mins


• preheat oven to 350 degrees f (175 degrees c).
• spread almonds on a baking sheet.
• bake in the preheated oven until almonds are golden brown and fragrant, 15 to 20 minutes. the nuts will continue to cook after removing from oven. transfer hot almonds to a wide-bottomed glass or stainless steel bowl.
• heat olive oil, garlic, rosemary leaves, red pepper flakes, and sea salt in a saucepan over low heat, just before almonds are out of the oven. mash the garlic and rosemary in the hot oil to release flavor. pour hot oil mixture over almonds; stir almonds every 5 to 10 minutes until completely cooled.
• drain oil from the almonds; transfer almonds to a paper towel-lined plate. the almonds will still be shiny and oily to the touch.
