Almond paste

 

Biscuit spices

  • 500 GRAM ALMONDS
  • 500 GRAM SUGAR
  • 1 EGG WHITE
  • 1 LEMON
 
  • 30 GRAM CINNAMON
  • 10 CARDAMOM PODS, cut open and use inside seed
  • 1 PIECE OF GINGER ROOT
  • 10 GRAM NUTMEG
  • 5 GRAM WHITE PEPPER
  • 5 GRAM ANIS SEED
  • 5 GRAM CORIANDER SEED

Wash the lemon and grate the peel. Blanch the almonds for 2 minutes in boiling water and take off the brown peels. Grind the almonds with the sugar in a food processor. Add the egg white and the lemon peel and mix for half a minute more. In the fridge, you can keep this for months. Just before use, add an egg yolk.

Grate the ginger very fine. Put all spices together and crush them; put them through a sieve and crush the remaining big pieces. Store the spices dark and cool.
