Miss Nang and sustainability

Choose snacks produced sustainably

Hello Nuts Lovers! I wanted to share our favourite colourful and nutty treats with you today.

All of our treats are handmade, gourmet, eco-friendly, and free from junk. Miss Nang believes that what we eat and our environment directly impacts our health. That’s why we adhere to five important principles:

First, we are committed to #ZeroPlastic. We use returnable glass jars or compostable wood pulp imitations for packaging, which disintegrates in water within 12 months.

Second, we are all about #ZeroChemical and #ZeroPreservatives. It’s all about your health. Our ingredients are natural, including the coloration. We use beetroot, turmeric, saffron, or spinach for colouring. We also only use cane sugar and sea salt in every snack. No preservatives because freshness always beats long shelf life. We want you to savour the intense flavours in every bite.

Third, we are dedicated to #ZeroWaste. We repurpose elements that would otherwise be discarded and turn them into new products. For example, we produce beetroot tea and flakes after extracting beet juice or caramelize orange peels with saffron.

Fourth, we make it a point to #BuyLocal. By reducing our carbon footprint and supporting the local economy, we buy our ingredients locally whenever possible. Even for nuts, we source them locally to offset businesses that have already imported goods into the country.

Miss Nang strives for sustainable business practices while providing guilt-free taste adventures. If you haven’t tried our snacks yet, I recommend starting with our original sweet tasters set. It will change the way you see nuts forever.

We would love to hear your thoughts on our mission.

Eat More Nuts – Love cashews

Nuts are a healthy snack choice because they are rich in essential nutrients and healthy fats. Here are some reasons why nuts make a healthy snack:

#High in protein: Nuts are a good source of plant-based protein, making them a filling and satisfying snack.
#Rich in healthy fats: Nuts contain monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which can help reduce the risk of heart disease and #improve cholesterol levels.
#High in fiber: Nuts are high in fiber, which can help regulate digestion and promote feelings of fullness.

Packed with vitamins and minerals: Nuts are a good source of vitamins and minerals such as vitamin E, magnesium, and potassium.
Low in carbs: Most nuts are low in carbs and high in healthy fats, making them a good option for people following a low-carb or keto diet.
Versatile: Nuts can be eaten on their own as a snack or used in recipes for added flavor and nutrition.
Some examples of healthy nuts to snack on include almonds, walnuts, cashews, pistachios, and hazelnuts. When choosing nuts as a snack, it’s important to keep portion sizes in mind, as nuts are high in calories. A small handful of nuts (about 1-2 ounces) is a good serving size for a snack.

Let’s Focus on Cashews in particular, one of my favourites and most popular here in the UK.

Cashews are a very versatile nut that can be used in a variety of ways in cooking and baking.

Here are some examples:
#Snacking: Cashews are a great snack on their own or mixed with other nuts or dried fruit.
#Nut butter: Cashews can be made into a smooth and creamy nut butter that can be used as a spread or in recipes that call for nut butter.
#Vegan cheese: Cashews can be used as a base for making vegan cheese or as a topping for salads or pasta dishes.
#Baking: Cashews can be ground into a flour and used in gluten-free baking recipes.

#Curry: Cashews can be added to curry dishes for creaminess and texture.
#Stir-fries: Cashews can be added to stir-fries for crunch and flavor.
#Desserts: Cashews can be used as a base for making vegan cheesecakes, ice cream, or other desserts.

Overall, cashews are a delicious and versatile nut that can be used in many different ways in food production.
