tommytouch Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I want to buy some cashew nuts, but just a small amount as I only need about 1/4 a cup for the recipe I'm making. They're about B250 in my local Tesco for quite a big pack and I'd rather just buy what's needed. Does anyone know of places selling nuts buy the gram, as some supermarkets do with dried fruit, or somewhere selling relatively small packs?

T_Dog Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I think I have seen small bags at the "Friend of Kitchen" (Puan Krua) cooking store on the Lamphun road, just south of the Super Highway overpass. If you like to cook, this is a store you need to know about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNXBKKMAN Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 42 gram bags are available in 7-11 and most food stores I have used cashews from seven before and it worked very well. Normally it no problem they are ready salted as you may well be using nam pla, curry paste, rot dee etc. any left over you just eat as you are cooking.

beau thai Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 small 20 baht bag from vendor outside 7-11 almost next to Holiday inn, on Chiang Mai-Lamphun Road, going towards Mahidol. And very tasty. Just enough to accompany a glass of wine without feeling guilty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just enough to accompany a glass of wine without feeling guilty. I think you and Dante99 are referring to salted cashews. It's unlikely that these are what is called for in the recipe.

vagabond48 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 We buy ours at the main vegetable market by the river. It is a larger quantity of a 1/2 KG but at the relatively cheap price of 150B some cracked or 160B whole. By weight, It is much cheaper by weight than Makro. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommytouch Posted June 5, 2014 Author Share Posted June 5, 2014 Thanks for all the great replies people, never again will I have to worry about sourcing cashew nuts in CM. (Also nice to be beating Lobin's 'walnut' post ) Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
