Hi Jordan: I just wanted to thank you for this recipe. I made it and it was really good. I didn't use the egg whites, I made it with water. I made pignoli cookies and everyone raved about how good the cookies turned out. I'm going to be more generous with the almond extract when I make the next batch. Again, thank you
Hello, drain the almonds, put them on the cloth, take the four ends and form a bag, and scrub them quickly before they get cold, and you will be almost all peeled at once. gracias por la receta.
Hello Jordan, Greetings from the Island of Spice. Grenada West Indies. I would like to thank you for posting this video. I came across your simple recipe on RUclips. Today I followed your recipe, and my Almond Paste came out perfect. Better than store bought. Once again thank you so much for posting.
My Family & I used YOUR recipe this evening! It was absolutely Delicious! Thank you for showing us and we'll continue looking forward to many more recipe videos!
I never knew it was so easy. I just bought some today at the supermarket to make cookies with and spent $16 for a pound of it. It looks like you can make your own for about half that.
Hey Jordan. I moved from NYC to Brasil a few years ago and finding almond paste is not easy. Found your recipe and cannot wait to make it. This was such a great video and I was bummed when I went to see what else you did and this is the only one!! Hope you make more down the road. Now, off to find almonds here. LOL
Michael Trent thanks bud! Yeah I know I want to make a lot more and reading this just now I was like wow I feel like I should get the ball rolling again :) happy holidays man and let me know what you think.. hasta luego!!
"Give them to your neighbor or to the mail man" - hahaaa, you got a thumb up.... kutgw, and don't worry about the belly, I have one too and never bothered me...:P
Is this paste used to put inside bear claw dough as a filling? Thank you. (If you hadn't drawn attention to your belly hanging over the countertop, I'm sure no one would've noticed since we are more interested in seeing how to make the almond paste).
yes, you can do that I think. If you find it too dry once baked add a little water next time. I make mine with almond cream. this is different: ground almonds+ granulated sugar + eggs + butter in equal amounts (no blanching needed) + some almond extract, processed in food processor till smooth - add a little flour for a thicker filling and less that equal part of butter (better in my opinion). The almonds don't have to be ground as fine.
If I already have ground almonds what measurements of ingredients would I need and if I was using stand mixer? Would I use the paddle or hook attachment? Thank you for this video!
Hello! Thank you for your comment. Yes, absolutely you can use almond flour and save some good time and cleaning of the machine 😅 please enjoy your final product whatever that may be.
It'll last a long time in the freezer wrapped tightly in plastic wrap.. id say between 3 and 6 months easy.. probably will last for eternity in a vacuum sealed bag
Jasón Hey Jasón! that is an egg white in that shot, you can use that or water need be. From my experience an egg white will give you a slightly more elastic texture like if you wanted to roll it out and cover a cake fondant style. Also adding a little bit of corn syrup could do the same effect but I’m not crazy about using that ingredient if I really don’t have to. I do water more often as I usually mix the almost paste into other desserts, like rainbow cookies or almond tarts, to where that slight difference in texture really won’t matter. Sorry for the rant lol egg white is your answer
Carol Ann Mancuso start off with half a tablespoon and then add a little bit at a time until it becomes one smooth piece. Be careful not to add too much or it will be more like a spread and less like a log. Thanks for watching and happy holidays!! :)
Hi there! Marzipan and almond paste are very similar but differ in the ratios of sugar to almonds. Marzipan has a lot more sugar but less almonds compared to almond paste so it’s sweeter and more pliable like fondant. Almond paste has more almonds but less sugar so it’s more coarse and somewhat less sweet lol and this recipe is fine for when it calls for almond paste. Thanks for watching and enjoy your holiday!
@@kosherbacon2478 Thank you so much for a great recipe and tutorial on almond paste. I have fine almond flour. Can I use it instead of blanched almonds?

Nice tip!
I tried this method to peel my almonds, but unfortunately it didn't work for me. 🤨🤔😞

you need to dry the ground almonds because of the oil
Can you use almond paste to make cake pops instead of using cake?
Bush about the gut! Never trust a skinny cook!! LMAO

can press and roll the almonds in the towel and the skins will come right off. Will save time.
Lovely can you teach how to make almond butter toffee that are usually made during christmas.
Tq for sharing 謝谢你☝️👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👌🌻
If I already have ground almonds what measurements of ingredients would I need and if I was using stand mixer? Would I use the paddle or hook attachment? Thank you for this video!
I'm wondering this too
Equal parts of sugar and ground almonds would work.
If I'm understanding the recipe correctly, they are equal parts according to WEIGHT (not cup for cup) of almonds and powdered sugar.
Wow! I was going to ask a question but since the last question he answered was 2 years ago what's the point?
Yeah its been a good couple of minutes, but I am here! 😁 what is your question?
Can you please put the recipe in your link.
Thank you so much! Bear Claws...here I come!
Thank you !
Where can I get the recipe?
How many ounces was the final product?
Basically you forgot everything lol 😂
instead of grinding the almonds, can almond flour be used with the rest of the ingredients?
Hello! Thank you for your comment. Yes, absolutely you can use almond flour and save some good time and cleaning of the machine 😅 please enjoy your final product whatever that may be.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️and you're so funny
How many months or weeks you can store an almond paste thanks
It'll last a long time in the freezer wrapped tightly in plastic wrap.. id say between 3 and 6 months easy.. probably will last for eternity in a vacuum sealed bag
Yum!
Can I make croissants with these?Thanks
What measurements did you use here
What food processor do you have?
I believe it is an old Cuisinart. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
0:10 What is inside the bowl above the powdered sugar? Is that melted butter?

No ! YOUR ISLAND IS TOOO LOW !!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
How much cold water do you add?
Carol Ann Mancuso start off with half a tablespoon and then add a little bit at a time until it becomes one smooth piece. Be careful not to add too much or it will be more like a spread and less like a log. Thanks for watching and happy holidays!! :)
Great video, thanks :)

@@kinzalee1 thanks alot for answering 😊

Is there anything that you didn't forget?
Maria de Fatima Reis I take it you are on RUclips for free professional Chef advice....
Paste has just a modest sweet taste((( What about almond cheese? It’s not so easy to get a real taste of cheese!! But more interesting than!
Kosher bacon... LOL
Almond flower.
