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.

Dogs are our link to paradise. They don’t know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring—it was peace. — Milan Kundera


The gift which I am sending you is called a dog, and is in fact the most precious and valuable possession of mankind

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.
