ALMOND- FLAX BUTTER
From The Vegan Sourcebook by Joanne Stepaniak. This is high in omega-3 fatty acids. Use as a replacement for dairy butter on toasted bread, bagels or crackers. I haven't tried this yet.

Steps:
- If the almonds have skins, they will need to be blanched and peeled: Place them in a small saucepan and cover them with water; bring to a boil, reduce heat slightly and simmer for two minutes.
- Drain the almondsin a colander and rinse them under cold water. Pop off the skins by pinching the base of each almond between your thumb and forefinger.
- Pat the almonds dry. (These steps are unnessary if you are using skinless almonds).
- Grind the almonds into a meal in a food processor fitted with a metal blade.
- Add the oil one tablespoon at a time and process until creamy.
- Add salt to taste.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
