Notes

  • Do not grind more as the nuts may release oil and turn to a paste.
  • Cool down completely before you store.
  • You can replace sugar with cane sugar or brown sugar.
  • You can even roast saffron but make sure not to burn it.
  • You can add 1 cup sugar to get a more fine powder. The more sugar you add you will get the powder more finer.
  • Make sure to use fresh nuts.
  • You can even use cardamom with skin but make sure to rinse well, dry it before roasting if you are planning to add it as such with skin.
