Cashew nuts are the seeds of the cashew tree, scientifically known as Anacardium occidentale. The cashew tree is native to northeastern Brazil but is now widely cultivated in tropical regions around the world. Cashew nuts are highly prized for their rich and buttery flavor, making them a popular ingredient in both sweet and savory dishes.
When it comes to growing cashew nuts, several important factors need to be considered. Firstly, the cashew tree requires a warm and tropical climate to thrive. It prefers temperatures between 20 to 32 degrees Celsius (68 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit) and cannot tolerate frost.
The cashew tree is typically grown from seed. The seeds are harvested from ripe cashew fruits, which are kidney-shaped, red or yellow in color, and grow on the tree. These fruits have a sweet and juicy flesh, but it is the seed or nut that is consumed.
Once the seeds are collected, they need to be dried in the sun for a few days to remove any excess moisture. This helps to prevent the growth of mold and other pathogens. After drying, the outer shell of the seed needs to be removed. The outer shell contains a toxic resin called urushiol, which can cause severe skin irritation and other allergic reactions. Therefore, it is important to handle the seeds with caution.
After removing the outer shell, the cashew nuts are ready for consumption. However, if the nuts are intended for planting, they need to undergo further processing. The seeds are soaked in water for a period of time, usually 24 to 48 hours, to soften the hard shell inside. This makes it easier to crack open and extract the nut.
Once the nuts are extracted, they are usually planted in well-drained soil. Cashew trees are known for their deep and extensive root systems, so it is important to provide enough space for the roots to grow. The trees also require regular watering, especially during the dry season, to ensure optimal growth.
It takes several years for a cashew tree to start producing nuts. In general, it takes about three to five years after planting for the tree to reach maturity and begin bearing fruit. The fruits or cashew apples start to develop after the tree flowers, and it takes around two months for the cashew apples to ripen.
Once the cashew apples are ripe, they are harvested by hand. The nuts are then separated from the fruits, and any remaining outer shell or skin is removed. The nuts are typically roasted to bring out their flavor before being sold or further processed into various cashew products.
