    prunus dulcis amara meaning & definition 1 of prunus dulcis amara.


  • Prunus dulcis amara, also known as the bitter almond, is a variety of almond tree that produces almonds with a strong bitter flavor. The bitterness is due to the presence of a compound called amygdalin, which can be converted into cyanide in the body. This makes the raw nuts toxic if consumed in large quantities. However, the processed nuts and oils are often used in small amounts for flavoring in cooking, baking, and liqueurs.
