Cashews in their Shell
Cashew Fruit or Cashew Apple
Chulpe
Over the weekend we were able to turn 8 cashew apples into two very large jars of jam. Cashew fruit has a yummy sweet-tart flavor reminiscent of fresh ripe mango, green mango and under-ripe apricots all rolled into one yummy fruit. I can’t wait to schmear this on a freshly baked biscuit!
And, the chulpe… wow! The concentrated sweet corn flavor is incredible. These super-crispy kernels have the sweet toasty corn flavor of the freshest corn tortillas jammed into each small kernels. When toasted, these kernels simply swell and split. They don’t turn inside-out like ordinary popcorn. We’re already addicted to these! This bag won’t last long in our house.
