Cashews
About this product
Whole cashew kernels, graded for size and colour. Grade matters more with cashews than with most nuts — broken and scorched pieces are routinely mixed into cheaper lots, and they cook and taste differently.

- Contains tree nuts.
How to use it

Storage
Airtight and cool. Nuts are high in oil and turn rancid in heat — in a warm kitchen, keep the jar in the fridge.
How long does it keep once opened?
Sealed and kept somewhere cool and dry, several months. Once opened, close the jar firmly straight after every use. Freeze-dried food pulls moisture out of ordinary air quickly, and once it softens the crispness does not come back.
Is this the same as dehydrated or sun-dried?
No. Dehydrated usually means hot-air dried at 60 to 80 degrees, which darkens the food, drives off the aroma and leaves it chewy. Freeze-drying applies no heat at all — the food is frozen, then the ice is drawn off under vacuum. The colour, aroma and structure survive.
Has any sugar or preservative been added?
No. Nothing has been added to this product beyond what is stated on the label. Removing the water is what preserves it, so no chemical preservative is needed. Any sweetness you taste came with the food itself.
Do I need to refrigerate it?
No. Store it at room temperature in a sealed jar, away from direct sun and away from steam. A cupboard is ideal. Do not keep it beside the stove or the sink.
How do I rehydrate it?
Cover with warm water and leave for five to ten minutes, depending on how thick the pieces are. Vegetables can also go straight into anything with enough liquid — soups, dals and curries — and will rehydrate as it cooks.
