Description: Almond essence is a concentrated flavoring created to replicate the sweet, nutty aroma of almonds. A few drops are enough to transform your dishes with a warm, fragrant richness. It's a popular ingredient in Indian desserts and festive confections, adding that unmistakable "shahi" (royal) touch to traditional recipes.
Use in Indian cuisine:
Perfect for flavoring mithai like Badam Barfi, Kheer, Sheer Khurma and Halwa.
Enhances the aroma of shrikhand, kulfi, rasmalai and phirni.
A few drops can enhance cakes, cookies and baked desserts with an Indian touch.
It is frequently used in festival recipes like Diwali sweets or wedding desserts to achieve a premium nutty fragrance.
Tip: Use sparingly: Almond essence is potent. Generally, 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon is enough for most recipes.
