The nut used to produce dynamite is the cashew nut. Cashews contain a toxic liquid called cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL), which can be processed to extract phenol and anacardic acid. These compounds can be used in the production of explosives, including dynamite. However, it's important to note that the use of cashew nuts for this purpose is not common and is overshadowed by their culinary uses.
To find the energy content of a cashew nut, you can use a calorimeter, which measures the heat released during combustion. First, dry the cashew nut and weigh it, then burn it in the calorimeter, capturing the heat released. The temperature change of the water in the calorimeter allows you to calculate the energy released, typically expressed in calories or joules. Alternatively, you can refer to nutritional databases that provide average energy values for cashew nuts based on standard measurements.
If you don't have parchment paper for macaroons, you can use a silicone baking mat, which provides a non-stick surface and helps with even baking. Alternatively, you can lightly grease your baking sheet with butter or oil, or use aluminum foil coated with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Just ensure that whatever substitute you choose can withstand the baking temperature without affecting the macaroons' texture.

The actual nut is mostly used for culinary purposes, mostly as snacks but they are also used in cooking, particularly in Thai and Chinese food. The other parts of the plants are much more interesting. The high level of anacardic acid in the nut shell makes one of the byproducts in processing the nuts very useful for treating tooth abscesses. The bark can be used as an antidiarrhoeal after being process. The nut oil is a antifungal and the gum from the plant is used in varnishes.
Yes, you can use all purpose flour in place of almond flour. However, the resulting cookies would not be macaroons, but simple cookies without much flavor.
Using raw nuts in peanut brittle is recommended because they will be roasted during the cooking process and develop a more intense flavor and crunch. If you use already roasted nuts, they may become overcooked and lose their intended flavor and texture in the final product.
