Semilla de Cajuil, commonly known as cashew nut, is the edible seed of the cashew fruit native to Brazil but widely cultivated in tropical regions. This creamy, mildly sweet nut is a staple in Latin American, African, and Asian cuisines, often used in snacks, desserts, and savory dishes. Nutritionally, cashews are a rich source of healthy monounsaturated fats, essential minerals like magnesium, copper, and zinc, and plant-based protein. They also contain antioxidants, including vitamin E, which supports skin health and combats free radicals. Despite these benefits, cashews should be consumed in moderation due to their calorie content and potential for high sodium levels if salted. Perfect for heart-healthy diets when unsalted and eaten in appropriate portions, Semilla de Cajuil boasts versatility and nutritional value, making it a beloved ingredient worldwide.
