Cashew halves and pieces are the smart buy if you plan to cook, bake, or blend. They're the same cashews as the whole kernels (same grade, same flavor, same nutrition), just broken during the shelling step. Since roughly 80% of what most people do with cashews involves chopping or blending them anyway (curries, stir-fries, granola, cashew cream, dairy-free cheese), paying premium prices for picture-perfect whole kernels is money left on the counter.

Ours are raw (not roasted), unsalted, shelled, and packed fresh in resealable stand-up bags at our Monroe, NY facility. kosher certified. Sourced from premium cashew processors in Vietnam and India, which together handle roughly 75% of the world's commercial cashew supply. You'll get a mix of large halves and smaller broken pieces in the same bag, which is exactly what recipes calling for "chopped cashews" need.

Why Raw (Not Roasted)

Raw cashews are the version every cashew-based recipe starts from. Cashew cream, vegan cheese, cashew butter, cashew milk, anything blended or soaked. Roasted cashews won't soak soft and won't blend smooth, so if you're cooking from scratch, raw is the only option that works.

For straight snacking, raw cashews taste milder and slightly sweet. You can always roast them at 325°F for 12 to 15 minutes if you want the deeper toasted flavor, but you can't reverse a roast. Buying raw keeps the bag flexible for every use.

How People Use Them

Cashew cream. Soak 1 cup raw cashew halves and pieces in hot water for 30 minutes, drain, blend with 1/2 cup fresh water, a squeeze of lemon, and salt. Use in place of heavy cream in pasta sauces or soups. Dairy-free, high protein, keeps in the fridge for 4 to 5 days.

Vegan cashew cheese. Same base as cashew cream, add nutritional yeast, garlic, and culture overnight with a probiotic capsule for tangy depth.

Indian and Thai curries. Simmer 1/2 cup cashew halves into the sauce base for creamy texture without dairy. Classic in korma, massaman, and kaju curry.

Stir-fries. Cashew chicken, cashew shrimp, or any vegetable stir-fry benefits from a handful of toasted pieces at the finish.

Baking and granola. Chop further or use as-is in cookies, banana bread, homemade granola, and energy bars.

Cashew butter. Blend 2 cups in a food processor for 10 to 15 minutes, scraping down the sides. Smoother than peanut butter and naturally sweet, no added oil needed.

Trail mix. Combine with raw almonds, dried cranberries, and dark chocolate chips.

How Freshness Holds Up

Seal the bag after each use and store in a cool, dry spot. 4 to 6 months pantry life. Cashew pieces carry more surface area than whole kernels, so they oxidize slightly faster. Bulk buyers should move half the 3 lb or 5 lb bag to the freezer on arrival. Freezing extends shelf life to 2 years without changing the texture. Every order ships within 24 business hours from Monroe, NY.
