✦ As-purchased weight reference ✦ Vitamin E and magnesium ✦ ~50-60% edible kernel ✦ Monounsaturated fat

Almonds weighed with shells reflect the whole-weight purchase format where the shell (about 40-50% of weight) is inedible. The edible kernel is identical in nutrition to shelled almonds: outstanding vitamin E, magnesium, manganese, monounsaturated fat, and protein. This entry is useful for calculating yield from in-shell almond purchases.

Preparation note

Crack shells with a nutcracker and use kernels immediately for the freshest flavour; in-shell almonds keep longer than shelled as the shell protects from oxidation.
