Processing of a cashew nut

1. Steam Roasting

This is a process where the steam is given to the Raw Cashew Nuts placed in the drum so that the Outer Most shell loosens from the Kernel. They have then kept aside around 24 hours to be dried before passing on to the next process.

2. Cutting

In this process, the Cashew kernel is removed from the shell. These shells are passed on for the extraction of a liquid called Cashew Nut Shell Liquid.

3. Hot chamber

Once the Cashew kernels are obtained from the shell in the cutting process, they are then placed in the hot chamber at 80 degrees for 5 hours so that they are roasted which facilitates the easy peeling of cashew nuts (removal of testa) in the upcoming process.

4. Cooling

After removing the Cashew nuts from the hot Chamber, they are then cooled for 4 hours before peeling.

5. Peeling
