About Noix de cajou

Noix de cajou, or cashew nuts, are nutrient-dense seeds native to Brazil but widely grown in tropical regions like India and Vietnam. They are rich in healthy monounsaturated fats, plant-based protein, and essential minerals such as magnesium, phosphorus, and zinc. Cashews are a versatile ingredient in global cuisines, especially in Asian, African, and vegan dishes, where they’re used to create creamy sauces, snacks, or desserts. They are packed with antioxidants and promote heart health, bone strength, and immune function. However, they are calorie-dense and should be consumed in moderation to avoid excessive fat and calorie intake. Look for unsalted and dry-roasted varieties to maximize health benefits while limiting added sodium or unhealthy fats.
