Founder's Note

From Mohit, founder of Chau Foods

Hi, I am Mohit from Chau Foods. People ask me if they should spend three times more on mamra. If you love the taste, go ahead. But for a daily handful, good California almonds do the job well, and the money you save buys a month of walnuts too.

California almonds are the most common almonds in India. They are large, evenly sized and mild in taste, and they offer the best value for daily eating.

Mamra badam come mainly from Iran and Afghanistan. They are smaller, more curved and have a higher natural oil content. Many families prefer them for soaking and for children. Because supply is small, mamra usually costs several times more than California almonds. We do not stock mamra at the moment.

Gurbandi badam are small Afghan almonds with a stronger, slightly bitter taste. They sit between California and mamra in price.

For a full comparison, read mamra vs gurbandi vs California almonds.

Is Costlier Badam Better?

Not always. For daily eating, smoothies and cooking, good California almonds give you almost the same nutrition at a much lower price. Mamra is a preference, not a requirement.

How to Check Almonds

1

Size

Even sized kernels mean better grading. Lots of broken pieces mean a lower grade.

2

Colour

Light to medium brown skin. Very dark or patchy skin can mean old stock.

3

Snap

A fresh almond snaps cleanly. A soft, bendy almond has absorbed moisture.

4

Taste

Mild and slightly sweet. A bitter or stale taste means rancid oil.
