Cashew Apple Nut, Marañón fruit Tree, A delicious, nutritious fruit that is perfect for snacks.
Cashew Apple Nut fruit Tree, also known as marañón is a fascinating tropical plant that produces two distinct products, the cashew nut and the cashew apple. The cashew apple is a pseudo-fruit, meaning it develops from the flower's receptacle rather than the ovary. It has a sweet and slightly tangy flavor, often compared to apples with a hint of citrus.
It is native to South America and is the source of the cashew nut. The tree can grow as tall as 30-40ft. The cashew nut is edible and is eaten on its own as a snack, used in recipes, or processed into cashew cheese or cashew butter. The nut is often simply called a 'cashew'. The cashew apple is a light reddish to yellow fruit, whose pulp and juice can be processed into a sweet, astringent fruit drink or fermented and distilled into liquor.
