Instructions
How to roast cashews in the oven:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup. Add cashews in a single layer.
- Roast until the cashews are fragrant and golden brown, about 7-10 minutes. But don't walk away! Stir occasionally to prevent scorching and keep an eye on your cashews since oven temperatures may vary.
- Remove from oven and chop or use as desired. Or, store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
How to roast cashews on the stove:
- In a medium skillet over medium heat, heat cashews until browned and fragrant stirring frequently, about 2 to 5 minutes.
- Remove from skillet and chop or use as desired. Or, store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
How to roast cashews in the microwave:
- On a microwave-safe plate, spread cashews in a single, even layer. Microwave in 1-minute intervals until lightly golden and toasted.
- Chop or use as desired. Or, store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
Notes
- Store raw and roasted cashews for a year or more in the refrigerator or the freezer (not the pantry). They spoil easily, especially when roasted. If they smell like paint, throw them away immediately.
- Cashews: Cooking times vary depending on which method you choose. And keep an eye on your cashews! They can go from zero to burnt in under a minute. Don’t walk away.
- Oil or butter: Roasting in fat is optional for plain cashews and helpful when you want to add spices and seasonings.
- Yield: The recipe as written makes 1 cup of toasted cashews (enough for 4 servings, ¼ cup each). It can easily be doubled or tripled as needed.
- Storage: Store raw and roasted cashews for a year or more in the refrigerator or the freezer (not the pantry). They spoil easily, especially when roasted. If they smell like paint, throw them away immediately.
