Amandes, or almonds, are nutrient-dense seeds native to the Middle East but widely used in global cuisines. Rich in healthy monounsaturated fats, they're a natural powerhouse of protein, fiber, vitamin E, magnesium, and antioxidants, making them a popular choice for heart health and energy. Amandes support brain function, bone health, and may assist with blood sugar regulation due to their low glycemic index. They're often enjoyed raw, roasted, or as almond flour, milk, or butter in a variety of dishes across Mediterranean, Indian, and Western cuisines. While incredibly nutritious, they are calorie-dense, so portion control is key. Additionally, due to their natural oils, excess consumption can lead to digestive discomfort for some individuals. With their delightful creamy texture and mild flavor, amandes are a versatile and satisfying addition to a balanced diet.
