How to choose good cashew nuts
You should choose cashew nuts that have plump, naturally round tails, bright yellow color, and are not chipped. Absolutely do not buy if you see nuts that show signs of darkening or mold.
Note: You can find coconut oil at grocery stores or supermarkets nationwide. However, these types of coconut oil are often diluted and not pure. If you have time, you should try making coconut oil at home following the instructions from TasteVN!
