slivered almonds

Thin nut pieces

Slivered almonds are almonds cut lengthwise into thin, flat strips.

They're a common ingredient in baking and cooking, adding texture and mild nutty flavor to salads, green beans, rice dishes, and pastries: Top the casserole with slivered almonds before baking.

Distinguished from sliced almonds, which are cut crosswise into thin rounds.
