The Cashew tree (Anacardium Occidentale) is a tropical evergreen native to the Americas but is now widely cultivated in Asia and Africa. Cashew in its natural form is a soft, white, meaty kernel contained within the hard shells of kidney shaped, raw cashew nuts. Cashew is consumed all over the world as a snack or used as a food ingredient. Every year, the world eats more than 600,000 metric tons of cashew. And fortunately, it’s a very healthy food. Cashew nuts are among the most nutritious nuts in the world. Cashew Nuts are low in fat, have zero cholesterol, are high in protein, and include a large amount of important vitamins and minerals.
Every single cashew nut comes from its own cashew apple, which are grown on cashew trees and thrive in tropical climates. The nuts are then collected, dried, shelled, peeled, graded, and roasted.
Raw Cashew Nuts( Known as RCN, Cashew nut Shell-on, Cashew nut in a shell, or Cashew nuts) is the name of the cashew apple sub-nut. Although a cashew apple contains 90% of the fruit, only 10% is a Raw Cashew nut.
A single Raw Cashew Nut has 30% cashew kernels and 70% cashew shell. Normally 1 ton of raw cashew nut can process 250-300 kg of the cashew kernels and 700-750 kg of the cashew shells.
The RCN has to be processed to separate the shell from the cashew kernel, which are used in cooking and confectionary making.
