The almond is the oval stone fruit of the almond tree. The original form is the bitter almond, but the sweet almond is far more common, although even sweet almonds may contain a natural bitter almond component of about 2%. Bitter almonds contain the substance amygdalin, which forms hydrocyanic acid when it reacts with water or saliva. It is important to note that this substance largely evaporates when heated (baked). The almond was already described in papyrus writings as early as the 16th century B.C. and is also mentioned several times in the Bible. In the Middle Ages, the almond was known as a medicinal and skin care remedy. Almonds are the nut with the lowest allergenic potential, meaning that almost everyone can tolerate them without any problems.
