History and Tradition
Wood-fired roasting of cashew nuts is a time-honored method originating from rural Vietnamese communities. After harvest, cashew tree wood is repurposed as firewood due to its even burn, which provides a stable heat source ideal for roasting.
Traditional Wood-Fired Roasting Process
- Preparing firewood: Cashew tree wood is cut into sections and sun-dried to enhance its burning efficiency while minimizing smoke.
- Wood burning: Using specialized roasting ovens, cashew wood is burned to generate a steady heat that ensures uniform roasting without scorching.
- Roasting the cashews: The nuts are roasted at a moderate temperature, allowing the heat to penetrate evenly and preserve their signature flavor.
- Quality control: Experts continuously monitor the roasting process to ensure the cashews achieve the perfect crunch without being overcooked or burnt.
