Instead of Flaked almond

Slivered almond
Use the same weight and chop roughly; they are thicker, so toast 1–2 minutes longer and expect more crunch.
Ground almond
Use the same weight when almonds are for thickening or binding; do not use as a garnish, as it will disappear into the dish.
Blanched split almond
Use the same weight and slice thinly; similar colour and mild flavour, though less delicate than ready flaked almonds.
