Instructions
- Cut an "X" in each chestnut with a paring knife.
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Soak chestnuts in hot water for 10 minutes.
- Rinse chestnuts and dry well.
- Place prepared chestnuts onto a baking sheet. Roast 30-40 minutes or until they begin to burst open.
- Once you remove them from the oven, place them in a bowl and cover it. Allow the chestnuts to rest about 10 minutes until they're cool enough to handle but still hot.
- While the chestnuts are still warm, peel them starting at the "X" and be sure to remove both the shell and bitter layer of skin.
- Toss with melted butter & salt. Serve warm.
Notes
- I like to toss with butter and salt but if you'd like a pinch of warm spices (like cinnamon) can be added.
