PARIANI Italian Almonds from Sicily (Raw, Peeled) 150g

100% Sicilian Noto Romana almonds in a vacuum sealed bag - 5.29oz

Intense and sweet, these peeled, raw almonds make delicious almond paste and marzipan, much like that you'll find all over Sicily. Although their texture is dry and dense (they are not as oily as other varieties), these Sicilian almonds intensify when roasted and are great for baking things such as almond croissants and shortbread.

The Noto Romana variety of almond hails from the southeastern corner of Sicily, near the town of Noto.

Imported from Italy

Mattia Pariani, the founder of Pariani, began in 2001 with a special project to extract oil from the seed of the Piedmont Hazelnut IGP. Today, Pariani works with five top quality Italian nuts including IGP Hazelnut from Piedmont, the “Lara” walnut from Veneto, Bronte DOP pistachios from Sicily, the “Romana of Noto” almond from Sicily and Pisan Littoral pine nuts from San Rossore Park in Tuscany.

From the union of the best selection of nuts and innovation, Pariani produces a range of high quality products such as cold pressed nut oils, flours, 100% pure pastes, spreads and an exclusive line of defatted nut flours.

The Pariani exquisite candied fruit peels come from carefully selected high quality citrus of Sicilian orange, lemon and bergamot, and are candied slowly with traditional methods to retain all the organoleptic qualities of fresh fruit.

Pariani products are present in the kitchens of many Michelin-star chefs and used by leading master chocolatiers, patissiers and artisan ice-cream makers all over the world.
