Whole Raw Cashews

Whole raw cashews are cashew nuts sold unroasted, as whole kernels rather than broken pieces. Their mild, slightly sweet taste and creamy texture make them easy to use in many ways. They can be roasted at home and eaten as a snack, added to rice dishes and stews, scattered over desserts, or soaked and blended into sauces, creamy spreads and plant-based milk. In Lebanese cooking, cashews often join pine nuts and almonds as a topping for rice and meat dishes. At Dekenet Al Nes in Baaqline, in the Chouf, cashews are sold by the kilo. As a package-free shop, we encourage customers to bring their own containers and fill only the amount they need, which helps cut plastic waste and single-use packaging.
