Tips

You can roast the cashews in the oven (325 F for 5 minutes) or air fryer (300 F for 3 minutes). Make sure the cashews do not brown at all as it will change the taste. Turn the heat off once the syrup reaches one-string consistency to avoid overcooking. Allow the cashews to completely cool down before storing.
