You can use either raw cashew nuts or roasted unsalted cashew nuts.

Why I say unsalted cashew nuts is because we add salt to the salad and so it is convenient to decide the amount of salt we need if all the ingredients we use are unsalted.

If you are using any already salted ingredients, you have to keep that in mind while adding more salt to avoid making the salt too salty.

I used raw cashew nuts in this easy salad recipe, but the roasted unsalted cashews will be more delicious if you prefer more crunchy salad.
