La Gruta Marcona Almonds

Item #: 3143

Marcona Almonds are sometimes referred to as the "Queen of Almonds" and almost all of the production is from Spain. They are sweeter, fatter and rounder than the typical California variety. In Spain, they are usually blanched and then quickly sautéed in fresh extra virgin olive oil. When toasty brown, they are tossed with sea salt and served as a delicious snack.
