About Cashews (Whole)
Fill with whole nuts without pressing them together. If the recipe says to chop after measuring, keep that order; broken pieces fit into gaps that whole nuts leave.
For cashew cream or a soaked filling, measure the dry nuts before soaking unless told otherwise. Drain as instructed and add the recipe's blending liquid separately, rather than treating soaked weight as dry weight.
Tips for measuring Cashews (Whole)
- Choose unsalted cashews when the recipe specifies them.
- Check whether roasting is requested before measuring or after.
Common mistakes
- Applying the dry whole-nut conversion to soaked cashews.
