Let's hear it for the noble cashew, a nut that doesn't get as much as love as those with famous spreads (looking at you, hazelnut and peanut) or candy bars (rhymes with “salmond Roy”). Salty, nutty cashews are the star here, combining delightfully with shrimp and rice, as well as some fresh veg and hot pepper flakes. Cashew, take a bow.
