Tips & Tricks (5)

Microwave Magic 🌟
Use a microwave-safe glass dish with a flat bottom to ensure even heating and prevent burning of the almonds during the cooking process.
Spice Blend Precision 🌶️
Mix all dry spices in a separate bowl before coating the almonds to ensure a perfectly even and consistent flavor distribution.
Butter Coating Technique 🧈
Melt the butter completely and mix with Worcestershire sauce before coating the almonds to create a more uniform and flavorful base.
Cooling Crunch Trick 🕰️
Allow the spiced almonds to cool completely on a flat surface to maximize their crispiness and prevent sogginess.
Flavor Intensity Control 🔥
Adjust the cayenne pepper quantity based on your heat tolerance, starting with a smaller amount and gradually increasing for perfect spice level.
