Not completely. Cashew kernels sold as “raw” are generally heated during shell removal because the shell contains irritating oils. The label usually means the kernels have not been roasted for flavour; processing methods can vary by producer.
Yes, mixed raw cashews sold as kernels are generally ready to eat and do not need cooking. The word “raw” does not mean they have had no processing; avoid eating cashews that are still in their shells.
A small handful—about 30 grams—is a practical daily portion for many people. Portion mixed raw cashews into a bowl instead of eating from the bag, where it is easy to lose track.
No, soaking mixed raw cashews is not necessary before eating. Soaking is useful when you want to blend them into a smooth cashew cream or milk; drain and rinse them after soaking, and use the mixture promptly.
Spread mixed raw cashews in one layer on a baking tray and roast them in a preheated oven, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden. Check often because cashews can burn quickly; add salt or spices after roasting.
Store mixed raw cashews in an airtight container in a cool, dark, dry place. Heat and air can make their oils turn rancid, while an open bag can absorb moisture and nearby food odours.
Mixed raw cashews do not cause weight gain on their own, but large portions can add substantially to your overall intake. Measure a small handful rather than snacking freely from the package.
Yes, mixed raw cashews freeze well. Seal them in an airtight, freezer-safe container to protect them from moisture and odours; you can use them directly from the freezer or let a portion come to room temperature.
Yes, mixed raw cashews work well for homemade cashew milk. Soak them until soft, drain and blend with fresh water, then strain if you prefer a thinner drink. Keep the milk refrigerated and use it promptly.
Dogs can have a small amount of plain, unsalted mixed raw cashews, but they do not need them in their diet. Avoid salted, seasoned, chocolate-coated or mouldy cashews, and keep portions small because they are rich and can upset a dog's stomach.

Mixed raw cashews are cashew kernels sold without roasting; “mixed” can refer to kernels in different sizes or shapes. They have a mild sweetness and a soft, creamy bite. They work well as a snack on their own or with dried fruit, and can be stirred into porridge, yoghurt or salads. In cooking, cashews are also blended into creamy sauces or added to vegetable and rice dishes.
They provide substantial unsaturated fat as well as plant protein, with 18.2 g of protein per 100 g. Because they are energy-dense, a small handful makes a practical snack; pair them with fruit if you want something more filling without relying on a large portion.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
