About Cashew[]

Wikipedia Article About Cashew on Wikipedia

Cashew nuts are crisp, kidney-shaped nuts with a slightly sweet and buttery flavor.

The Cashew (Anacardium occidentale) is a tree in the flowering plant family Anacardiaceae. The plant is native to northeastern Brazil, where it is called by its Portuguese name Caju (the fruit) or Cajueiro (the tree). It is now widely grown in tropical climates for its cashew nuts and cashew apples. Originally spread from Brazil by the Portuguese, the cashew tree today can be found in all regions with a sufficiently warm and humid climate.
