Cashews Roasted and Salted
These scrumptious cashews have been roasted in sunflower oil and lightly salted. Roasted and salted cashew nuts are always a family favourite due to their crunchy texture, moorish flavour and nutty aroma. These roasted cashews have nothing artificial added. Delicious for snacking on or ground into a salty, fresh, additive-free nut butter. Interestingly, cashews are related to pistachios and mangoes and they are actually classified as a seed not a nut due to their unique growing process.
Cashews have less fat than most other nuts but the fat they do have is mostly Oleic acid, which is important for healthy brain function. Roasted and salted cashews are super high in copper, a trace mineral that is essential for immune function, heart muscles and iron and fat metabolism and are a good source of iron, B6 and potassium. They are also rich in the mineral magnesium, important for over 300 different reactions involved in blood sugar balance, muscular contraction, sleep maintenance and pain management.
