Chestnuts
« on: December 22, 2017, 10:53:28 AM »
Roasted up a 1/3 pound last night, so tasty.

Make sure you cut the hulls or they go pop.

450 oven for about 12 minutes, remove and wrap in a towel in a bowl to keep them warm. Peal and eat.

Such a good buttery nutty sweet flavor.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

SIL (the British one, not the trailer park queen) makes a dish with sage sausage and chestnuts.  Delish.  She has a tool, like pliers that cuts an X into the raw chestnut so that it won't pop, and it's also fairly easy to peel after roasting.  Good stuff.

I would have to ask her to retrieve it. She has archived hundreds of recipes and keeps meticulous records with her comments and variations on everything she has ever cooked.
