Peel skins of the almonds the next day. (Note: Some websites said that the skin would fall right off,after so much soaking,but it didn't,it involved patient peeling.This is by far,the most patient prep work i have done for a recipe in a long time.Feel lazy? use peeled almonds or slivered almonds instead.)

Soak the saffron in 2 tbsp of warm milk and set aside.
