I just bought a packet of really truly raw cashews. They taste nothing like I would have expected. They are incredible. Creamy sweet and more dense and nutritious tasting... Wow, the loving earth ones are from the island of Flores in Indonesia. Fair trade, organic and still have the highly nutritious outer skin or testa on the nut. What we once thought of a 'raw cashew' has actually been boiled or steamed in order to remove the shell and inside skin, which of course destroys the enzymes. They are obviously more expensive but so worth it, these cashews have been shelled by hand!
