Many people didnt know this but Cashew is not really a nut. Its a seed for cashew apple. Cashew apple is used for making wine. Cashew apple cannot be sold to market because it rots fast if you ship it to market, thats why its turned into wine after harvest right away.

The word 'nut' is used differently in a biological context vs. a culinary (food) context, like the way capsicum and tomatoes are usually considered a vegetable in cooking even though they're technically a fruit. Cashews aren't a 'true nut' because they're seeds, but the same goes for almonds and Brazil nuts.

I didn't know people made wine from cashew apples. That's interesting.

I am happily including cashews in my handful of nuts daily. Earlier, I used to avoid it for the misconception thar it makes you weight gain. Well, portion control is the key..I can have it regularly without carrying any guilt. It's good calories that I am adding.

Have you tried different ways to enjoy cashews, like in recipes or on their own?

Cashews are my favourite nuts and Yes these are loaded with immense benefits but too much of these May not suit someone who faces stomach issues especially during summers

Oh totally.. Cashews are amazing but they can definitely be heavy on the stomach especially when it's hot out. I've noticed that too. they're so creamy and rich that eating too many can make you feel kind of sluggish.

We are using cashew nuts in various ways. So, the article interested me very much.

That's great that you're already using cashews in different ways.. They're so versatile.. you can make cashew cream, use them in stir-fries, blend them into smoothies, or just snack on them. I'm always looking for new ways to incorporate them into recipes. What's your favorite way to use them?
