Cashew Pieces Organic 500g

A popular snack, cashews have a rich flavour and so it is often eaten on its own – lightly roasted and salted. The cashew nut is not as hard as other nuts. And unlike other nuts, you will never find cashews sold in their shell. This is because the inside of their shell contains a resin related to the poison ivy family known as cashew balm, which must be carefully removed before the nut can be consumed.

Like all nuts, cashews are an excellent source of protein and fibre. It is also rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and a good source of potassium, B vitamins and folate.

HOW TO USE

Cashew pieces have a fresh, crunchy texture that is a little softer than most other nuts making them easy to blend into a rich, smooth paste. This is ideal in vegan recipes for slices, cakes, butters, milks and cheeses.

• Delicious to snack on by themselves or added to granola, muesli, baked goods, salads and stir-fries.
• Use cashews in place of peanuts for your homemade satay sauces.
• Combine cashew pieces with other nuts, seeds and dried fruits into a trail mix to suit your taste buds, or simply sprinkle them over savoury dishes as a crunchy topper.
• Roast and flavour your own cashew pieces to make an even tastier snack; Chilli, smoked paprika, garlic salt, nutritional yeast, maple syrup, honey… The options are endless.
