Cashews are kidney-shaped nuts that come from the cashew tree (Anacardium occidentale). They have a smooth, pale beige to light brown shell that is removed before consumption, revealing the edible nut inside. The raw cashew is soft and has a mild, slightly sweet flavor, but it becomes richer and more complex when roasted.
Cashews have a creamy texture and a buttery, nutty taste that makes them versatile in both savory and sweet dishes. They can be eaten raw, roasted, or salted, and are often used in cooking and baking. Cashews are also popular in plant-based diets as a base for dairy alternatives like cashew cheese, cream sauces, and even ice cream.
Nutritionally, cashews are a good source of protein, healthy fats, vitamins (such as vitamin E and B vitamins), and minerals (including magnesium, phosphorus, and zinc). They contribute to a balanced diet and can support heart health, bone health, and overall well-being.
