Cashew nut is the real fruit of a cashew, which is called Anacardium Occidentale L. in scientific terms. It resembles the shape of a kidney. Cashew nuts are technically not nuts but seeds, which are hung within the cashew fruit at the end of the cashew apple - the edible swollen fruit stem. This is why it is also known as "false fruit." It has its origin in the Anacardiaceae family and originated in Brazil. Later on, between 1563 and 1578, the Portuguese brought cashew nuts to India (specifically Goa) and Africa. Around 33 varieties of cashews have been identified since then. The W-180 variety of cashew is called the "king of cashews" because of its premium quality, large-scale availability, and a comparatively larger size.
The flowering of cashews takes place from December to April in the Northern hemisphere (Russia, Canada, China, India), and from June to December in the Southern hemisphere (Australia, Chile, Brazil, South Africa). It takes around 2 to 3 months for the cashew fruit to fully mature and become ready for harvesting. However, this also depends on the tree's health, variety, and the climate conditions. They are then used for various purposes - as a snack (roasted cashews) and as an ingredient in curries, noodles, Asian stir-fries, etc (by making a paste out of it).
