After searching high and low in the hamlet I call home, I was unable to
locate a source for almond meal/flour, which I need on short notice. My
husband's coworker - something of a foodie - said he knew of an Asian grocery
where he could get some and was kind enough to bring it in to work today.
Naturally I appreciate his trouble but I am a little concerned. Is almond
"powder" the same as almond meal/flour? This stuff is extremely fine textured
(smells divine!) and looks a bit like cornstarch. The can gives directions
for making it into a drink and has all sorts of intriguing Chinese writing on
it. My plan for it was marzipan.
Anyone out there familiar with almond powder?
