Cashew Nuts with white Kampot salt and pepper

In the heart of Cambodia, in the fertile region of Kampong Thom, our cashew nuts are cultivated under ideal conditions. Though less known than other major producers, Cambodia is renowned for the superior quality of its cashew nuts, thanks to its favourable climate and natural, sustainable farming methods.

Historically a leading producer, Cambodia has gradually developed its own processing industry, supported by our commitment to using only 100% Cambodian cashew nuts. This initiative not only highlights an ancestral terroir but also contributes to a sustainable and fair rural economy, offering fair working conditions, particularly beneficial for women who play a crucial role in the selection and grading process.

Our Cashew Nuts with White Kampot Salt and Pepper are the result of a subtle blend of exceptional ingredients, all benefiting from a dual Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) from the prestigious Kampot region in Cambodia. Kampot Salt, renowned for its purity and delicate flavour, is combined with White Kampot Pepper, prized for its subtle aroma and balanced peppery notes. Together, they create a perfect harmony of salty and peppery flavours that enhance each cashew nut.

To further enrich this taste experience, we add a touch of Kampong Speu Palm Sugar PGI. This natural sugar, derived from the sap of local sugar palms, provides a subtle sweetness that perfectly balances the salty and peppery taste of the cashew nuts. This unique combination reflects not only the artisanal expertise of Kampot but also the richness of its exceptional terroir. You can also try our two other cashew-based products, with our smoked cashew version or our cashews with turmeric and galanga for a more explosive flavour.

Kampot, famous for its unique peppers and salts, benefits from an ideal climate and fertile soils that impart an incomparable quality to its products. By choosing our Cashew Nuts with Kampot Pepper and Salt, you are not only savouring exquisite flavours but also supporting an ancient and environmentally respectful artisanal tradition. Each cashew nut is a testament to the rich and diverse agricultural heritage of Kampot, offering a distinctive and unforgettable taste experience.

Cashew nuts are a true superfood, known for their exceptionally rich nutritional profile. They are packed with plant-based proteins, fibre beneficial for digestion, unsaturated fatty acids that promote cardiovascular health, and a full range of essential vitamins such as vitamin E, vitamin K, and various B vitamins. Additionally, they are a significant source of minerals like magnesium, zinc, and iron, which are vital for numerous physiological processes. Their antioxidant content, including copper and selenium, helps boost the immune system and protect cells from oxidative damage.

However, due to their caloric density, it is recommended to consume cashew nuts in moderation as part of a balanced diet. One to two handfuls per day is a reasonable portion that allows you to enjoy their nutritional benefits without excessive calorie intake. Appropriately integrated, cashew nuts can be a delicious and beneficial addition to your daily diet, supporting your overall well-being and long-term health.

Our Cashew Nuts with Kampot Salt and Pepper are perfect as a snack to enjoy on their own, ideal for accompanying an aperitif, or incorporating into creative recipes. Try pairing them with our dried mangoes and pineapples with Kampot Red Pepper for a sweet, salty, and slightly spicy fusion that will delight your taste buds.
