Comments
• This is a simple way to roast chestnuts at home using a simple stove top and oven.
• Traditionally chestnuts were roasted on open fire, inside an old pan with holes at the bottom, moving chestnuts continuosly to avoid burning one side.
Wine and Beverage Pairing
• Raosted chestnuts are excellent paired with a wide range of red wines, from frothy, low-alcohol Lambrusco from Emilia, to full bodied Primitivo di Manduria DOC and almost anything in between.
