The Tree The cashew-nut tree is a fast growing tropical tree growing to a height of 6 -12 m (20 – 40 f). Its evergreen leaves are oval, leathery and dark green. It originates from the Caribbean Island and the North East of Brazil. But today it is grown in several other tropical parts of the world. Mostly in Africa, India and Ivory Coast being one on the leading growers in the West African region. Blossoming takes place between November and January and within two months, fruits are fully ripped and ready for harvesting. The Fruit (Cashew Apple) The cashew fruit (Anacardium occidentale) is attached to the lower portion of the cashew apple. The cashew apple is oval-shaped, like bell pepper: yellow, orange or red in color is a false fruit which is also edible. The apple is highly perishable but very healthy. It can be eaten fresh or juiced. Syrup, wine, brandy, gin, preserved fruit, pickles and glazed fruit are also made from the cashew apple. The real fruit (cashew seed), a more discreet nut is attached to the end of the fake fruit. It is that which contains the edible kernel, which we call cashew nut. The cashew seed hangs at the bottom of the apple, and is C-shaped. In its raw form the cashew kernel is soft, white and meaty.

Locally, the soap is known as alata simena, anago soap, ose dudu and sabulun salo. The secret recipe to make the African Black soap was passed down from generation to generation as it was considered sacred. However, there are several formulations on how to make it. Some have even been improvised and more ingredients have been added.

Palm kernel oil â?? unlike the one above, it is derived from the seed of the palm tree. It is a great source of fatty acids. How is African Black soap made? First, plant matter is gathered, then it is sun-dried and then it is roasted at a consistent temperature until it becomes ash. This is how it gets its deep and dark color. This ash is then added to water and a mixture of palm oil, coconut oil, Shea butter and any other fats needed. This mixture is then heated and stirred by hand for at least a day. When it begins to solidify, it is removed and left to â??cureâ?? for about a fortnight. The soaps made traditionally are generally purer as compared to those sold in American or European countries as they may have additional ingredients. How to use African Black Soap The soap has a sort of rough texture accompanied by an earthy scent which is pleasant. Being unprocessed, you will have to cut the soap into smaller pieces according to your own liking. As it is raw, it may contain pieces of vegetation which can easily be pulled out to avoid being cut while using it. To use it properly, create lather on your hands before rubbing it on your skin.
