The '''almond''', ''prunus dulcis'', is a species of [[tree]] native to the [[Middle East]], and the term also names the nuts which grow on that tree.  The nut is a [[drupe]] an inch or two in length with a hard, yellowish outer shell and an edible [[seed]] inside.  The world's largest producer of almonds is the [[United States]], and the nuts are the largest agricultural export of the state of [[California]].  The almond is used in a variety of dishes around the world, including baklava, marzipan, and amaretti.  Additionally, almonds may be used to create a milk-like beverage or a paste called almond butter, similar in texture to peanut butter.  The almond is the official tree of the [[India|Indian]] state of Jammu and [[Kashmir]].
