The Many, Many Talents of Cashews
Delicious as a snack and a staple of many Asian cuisines, the mighty and humble cashew is capable of so much more. These versatile nuts can add a delightful crunch and rich, creamy texture to a wide range of dishes — some of which may surprise you. Here are some cooking ideas and dishes where you can incorporate cashews:
- Cashew Butter: Blend roasted cashews with a touch of salt and a bit of sweetener to create homemade cashew butter. Use it as a spread on toast, in sandwiches, or as a dip for fruit and vegetables.
- Curries: Cashews can be used to thicken and enrich curries. Grind them into a paste and mix with other spices, tomatoes, and coconut milk to create a creamy base for your curry.
- Cashew Dressing or Sauce: Blend cashews with water, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs to make a creamy salad dressing or a sauce for pasta dishes.
- Cashew Milk: Similar to almond milk, cashew milk can be made at home and used in smoothies, coffee, or as a dairy milk substitute in recipes.
- Cashew Granola: Incorporate chopped cashews into homemade granola for added crunch and nuttiness.
- Cashew Cookies or Bars: Add cashews to cookie or energy bar recipes for a boost of flavor and nutrition.
- Cashew Pesto: Swap pine nuts in traditional pesto recipes for cashews, creating a creamy and nutty pesto sauce for pasta or as a condiment.
Cashews’ natural creaminess and nutty flavor make them a fantastic addition to both savory and sweet dishes. Experiment with these ideas to enjoy the versatility of cashews in your cooking (and baking!).
