你知道過年送禮大熱門是什麼嗎？答對了！就是堅果！杏仁、核桃、胡桃等堅果都是快速、健康又多樣化的零嘴，也是各式點心常見的成分！無論你要烘烤翻炒、烤到金黃焦脆，或是加入辛香料調味，堅果都是走到哪吃到哪的涮嘴零食，想要來一道清爽的堅果沙拉也沒問題，和台灣當地美食混搭更是有畫龍點睛的效果！就像大受好評的杏仁酥，就是把美國加州生產的杏仁用台灣的麥芽糖翻炒到帶糖色。跟其他種糖不同的地方是，傳統台灣麥芽糖是將小麥草和糯米攪拌在一起，並遵循古法以柴火長時間慢熬，過程中釋放出來的木柴香氣，和帶有烘烤微焦味的杏仁簡直是完美搭配 🌰 更多加州杏仁好吃好玩小知識，歡迎追蹤美國美食報你知 United Tastes in Taiwan臉書專頁！

America’s Food on Taiwan’s Table: The perfect friendship
What’s a best friend for? A best friend is someone who brings out the best in you! Just as the United States and Taiwan have a great friendship, some of our foods combine together to make the perfect combo. That’s why we’re launching America’s Food on Taiwan’s Table: The Perfect Friendship to celebrate the food #BFFs that brighten our lives.
Do you know what is one of the most popular Chinese New Year gifts? Bingo! It’s tree nuts! Tree nuts like almonds, walnuts, and pecans, and many more are quick, healthy and versatile snacks or ingredients in your favorite treats. Roasted, toasted, sweetened, or spiced, tree nuts name a great grab-and-go snack or topping to your favorite salad. And every kind of tree nuts can play versatile and inspirational in a wide variety of tasty, creative Taiwan foods. Like this popular almond brittle souvenir, it features crunchy California almonds that are first pan-fried and coated with Taiwanese rice malt syrup. Unlike any other sugar, the traditional Taiwanese rice malt syrup made of wheat grass and glutinous rice is cooked long time with firewood, through the process bringing out woody scents that go perfectly with toasty almonds! Yummy! Follow 美國美食報你知 United Tastes in Taiwan to know more about California almonds!
