FAQ
Do I need to toast them? No, but it's worth it — two minutes dry in a hot pan deepens the flavour. Watch closely; they colour fast.
Flaked or nibbed? Flaked for delicate, decorative crunch on top; nibbed for chunkier 2mm pieces that hold their bite in and on bakes.
How should I store them? Cool, dark and dry; reseal after opening or decant into an airtight jar to keep them crisp.
