What to know about cashews
Blended into cashew cream, dairy-free cheese or a curry base, cashews turn a whole recipe into a trigger. They are high in oxalate, high in nickel, high in lectins and high FODMAP from their GOS, and because vegan cooking uses a full cup soaked and blended, the dose gets large fast. A splash of cashew cream can push an otherwise gentle dish over the line even when the rest of the plate is clean.
Watch for
- High in oxalate, and cashew-based creams and cheeses use a big blended portion, so the oxalate dose adds up quickly
- High in GOS, which makes a creamy sauce a hidden FODMAP source in an otherwise low-FODMAP meal
- High in nickel and lectins, both worth watching if you react to those
- Truly raw cashews are never sold, the shell holds urushiol (the poison-ivy compound), so shop cashews are always steamed
