I love nuts too, I use and eat a lot of them as I can't have gluten or dairy so I make a lot of nut meals to do baking and I make all my own nut milks : )
I don't cook them as such but I activate them which is where you soak them in water overnight and put them in the dehydrator. Sometimes I'll dehydrate without soaking also.
We just went nut picking yesterday : ) and got macadamias and pecans, YUM! I'll let these dry out in a dry, cool, dark room for 3 weeks to let their oils develop and then put them into the dehydrator. Like the oven, they get a nice crunch to them but their good fats don't turn into bad fats when you dehydrate them unlike when they're roasted on high temps. : )
hmm... interesting.
Yes, I agree with @sinlg. Interesting!
My brother just recently tried them, he wasn't sure but once he tried them he said they were better than roasted!! : )
