Is it fine if I dry roast soaked nuts & seeds?

No, it is not advisable to dry roast soaked nuts and seeds. When nuts and seeds are soaked, it activates enzymes that aid digestion and nutrient absorption. Heating or roasting them after soaking can lead to the destruction of these beneficial enzymes.

To enjoy the best texture and taste, making nut butter by roasting unsoaked nuts is recommended. However, if you have soaked nuts, it is generally best to consume them directly without roasting them on the fire. Soaking nuts and seeds helps to soften them and remove enzyme inhibitors, making them easier to digest and allowing for better nutrient availability.

You can preserve the living enzymes and maximize their nutritional benefits by consuming soaked nuts and seeds without roasting. Soaking also helps to enhance the texture and make them more enjoyable to eat. Therefore, avoiding dry roasting soaked nuts and seeds is preferable instead of consuming them as is after the soaking process.
