How to make Almond and raisin agrodolce

1. Place the raisins in a medium bowl and pour over enough vinegar to cover them. Let them sit for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

2. Meanwhile, combine the oil and almonds in a small frying pan set over medium heat. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the almonds are golden brown. Transfer to a small bowl and allow to cool.

3. Mix the softened raisins, onion, lemon zest, and red pepper flakes into the cooled almonds; season with salt. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes.

4. Just before serving, toss in the parsley.

5. The agrodolce (without lemon zest and parsley) can be prepared up to 3 days in advance. Cover and chill in the fridge, then bring to room temperature before using.
