When I was in France years ago I loved the roasted chestnuts sold by street vendors.
Now, we don't get that many chestnuts on the Sunshine Coast - but I picked up a few at a stall the other day.
So hit me with your best chestnut recipes - something where I could keep them whole would be ideal :)
My DH just makes them for us roasted ... he cuts crosses on the flat side, boils them for 10 mins and then roasts them in the oven. I think the boiling thing is meant to make them easier to peel as well as the cross cutting.
DH lived in the UK for 2 years when he was a teenager so it brings back memories for him of cold winters ... its a nostalgic food I think.
I like them plain roasted, but would be interested to see if anyone else has anything more interesting they do with them :)
