1/4 cup whole almonds (about 1-1/2ounces)
4 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 pound green beans, trimmed, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 large garlic clove, pressed
1 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger
2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions
1/3 cup fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Place almonds in small nonstick skillet. Stir over medium heat until almonds are lightly toasted, about 5 minutes. Increase heat medium-high. Add 3 teaspoons soy sauce and stir until soy sauce evaporates and coats almonds, about 1 minute. Transfer to plate and cool. Chop almonds. Cook beans in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, about 5 minutes. Drain. Rinse beans under cold water. Drain well. (Almonds and beans can be prepared 6 hours ahead.

Sprinkle green onions, cilantro and almonds over salad and serve. *** I had to chop almonds in food processor. They hardened in pan with soy sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right almonds: Opt for whole, raw almonds that are free from any blemishes or discoloration.
  • Soak the almonds: Soaking the almonds helps to soften them and remove any bitterness. You can soak them overnight or for at least 3 hours.
  • Use a good quality soy sauce: The soy sauce is a key ingredient in this recipe, so make sure to use a good quality one. Look for a soy sauce that is naturally brewed and has a rich, umami flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the almonds, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Keep a close eye on the almonds: Soy-glazed almonds can burn easily, so keep a close eye on them while they are cooking. Stir them frequently to ensure that they are evenly coated in the glaze.
  • Let the almonds cool completely: Once the almonds are cooked, let them cool completely before serving. This will allow the glaze to set and the almonds to become crispy.

Conclusion:

Soy-glazed almonds are a delicious and versatile snack that can be enjoyed on their own or added to a variety of dishes. They are also a good source of protein, fiber, and healthy fats. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make your own soy-glazed almonds at home. So next time you are looking for a healthy and satisfying snack, give this recipe a try!
