Wow, watching you cook chestnuts on your channel is making my mouth water!
I am Italian too and i actually have some chestnuts trees, i love it and eat them in many different ways: roasted, steamed, boiled like you did, dried then turned into flour to make cakes or even pasta, back in the days it was one of the few foods available for the population living in the north, in the mountains.
ma così difficile per sbrucciare
@@chrisgartenn not cooked, just dried for 30-40 days. To make proper flour i need to bring it to a mill with special stone for chestnuts, normal mills arent good enough because you need a really fine powder.
But you can make a semi-acceptable flour by using a power blender, just be careful not to heat the flour too much.
@@lexilexis6963 devi usare castagne di qualita', le castagne che trovi nei boschi non coltivati sono per lo piu' selvatiche quindi non sono selezionate in base alla varieta', invece quelli che le coltivano piantano solo varieta' buone che sono piu' saporite e facili da sbucciare, anche la pellicina interna.
@@chrisgartenn No, this is how it's done: first you dry the chestnuts, then you put them in a burlap sack or some other bag made with a strong fabric, and smash it against a stump or something, many times. Most of the outer shell will come off, same for the brown skin, and here comes an important part that it's often overlooked, you need some good variety of chestnuts for this job, here they've been selected over the centuries to facilited the peeling of the brown skin which is the biggest issue when dealing with chestnuts, for most preparations. Some of the peeling must be done by hand, and carefully selected to discard the bad chestnuts even for the smallest imperfections otherwise you ruin the whole batch of flour. Yes it's complicated and a pain in the ass that's must be why, in modern days, 1 kg of chesnut flour costs like 15 euro or more. There are modern machines that makes the job easiser, but very expensive and for industrial usage.
The mill must be presented with perfectly peeled and dried chesnuts otherwise they wont grind them.
Also the REAL drying process is not so simple: there are specially buildt small houses, in stone, and at the base of the house they start a slow fire to create smoke, and in the floor above they lay down the chestnuts to dry for a month or a little more, constantly keeping the smoke going, there used to be like one of those smokehouses for every town or county, and everybody brought their chestnuts there, now there is maybe one in the whole valley where i live and it's kept mostly to keep alive traditions.
I’m also a chestnut girl. They sell them cooked and in a bag at Walmart this time of year. So good! Thanks for sharing how you clean, cook and enjoy them fresh. ❤
How I wish my local Walmart carried any type of chestnuts.
Where are these bags of cooked chestnuts located within Wal-Mart? Sounds wonderful.
Where are the chestnuts at Walmart?
@@GalCharlotteWhere I live Costco has cooked chestnuts , if you have one near you maybe check it out
It must be a regional thing for your area because I have never seen them at any Walmarts in the northeast. 😔
Oh my you've unlocked an old memory of my Korean grandmother making this when I was a kid. I will have to make some for her for Christmas, she is in her 80s now. Thanks for this Maangchi!
Korean caption is up now! 한국어자막 올렸어요!
English and Korean caption are available.
Thank you very much for your nice comments and sharing your own stories. I'm always interested in your stories!
Do you have a recipe for making Black Bean Sauce from scratch?
In kuwait We light the firewood and throw the chestnuts on it until we hear the sound of them popping when they cooked we eat one by one 😍
We do that here in U.S. too,I guess the whole world can connect with food!❤
I love chestnuts in my samgyetang (ginseng chicken soup)😋
I'm Italian too... and we definetely love our chestnuts. ❤
My grandma used to peel the outer shell and boil them with a bay leaf... then she removed the peel inside and added some sugar. I loved it so much. ❤❤
I love chestnuts! My mother taught me, and now I have taught my husband, and every year we take them while we can.We are from Bulgaria and in some places they also sell grilled chestnuts over coals.
❤❤❤Thanks for sharing how you clean, cook and enjoy them fresh. ❤
This is such a great thing to learn. It seems so simple but really, it would have taken so much trial and error (how long to boil, to rinse or not rinse, for how long, how to cut...) that I just never tried making them. And speaking of moms... this is something I wish I could have learned from my mom. Thank you for teaching this to me. I love all your videos!
My hubby and I will go picking chestnuts in park, that’s our entertainment every year.
Good luck!
I love chesnut especially roasted chestnuts 😋 thank you for the recipe
My Dad loves roasted chestnuts. There was a japanese store that used to roast them during Christmas time and we used to go to the mall just to get them...
: )
😍
I also loooove raw chestnut - my mother always carefully peeled them with a knife and we shared them together with my sister 🥰🌰
My husband and I are currently visiting Korea and just enjoyed a bag of roasted chestnuts in Gyeongju yesterday. We also enjoyed many bottles of chestnut makkeoli, which was also very delicious! 😊
Thank you for sharing the story! Have a great trip!
It's always a mess when I grill chestnuts but it looks like a lot easier boiling them
Thanks for sharing 🥰
your headband is adorable.
Maangchi ... the chestnut hoarder 😁😜
I love chestnuts too!
I've always been curious how to cook and eat chestnuts. Thank you for sharing this!!
Best is roasted for 15 min. The nutritional value when boiling for 40 is almost gone . Make a small incision on the outside and grill , best and still crunchy and tasty
Yeah. That Christmas song says you're supposed to roast them on an open fire, but, thanks to the Internet, there are other ways to enjoy them.
Oh, thank you for this-what perfect timing! I keep kosher so I can't make/eat a lot of the recipes you share (I love watching anyway!), but I'm about to make chestnut soup for the first time and I had no idea how to prepare the chestnuts. Along comes Maangchi to solve the problem! 😊
Chestnut soup sounds great! How do you make it?
You make a soup base with sauteed onions/garlic/carrots/celery and some people add a leek here. Then you add broth, seasonings of your choice, and prepared chestnuts, simmer until very tender, then blend until smooth! It's easy now that I can prep the chestnuts. @@Maangchi
So wholesome, loved your little story from Italy! Sending love
아침부터밤를요.밤으로밥해먹으면맛있겠네요^^~~
She's so cute. Love chestnuts too. I can eat all that's in the bowl.
I love chestnuts as well:) thank you ❤🤍
caldarroste ❤ as we call them in Italy
I love you! Thank you for all your wonderful recipes. You always make my day better.
I remember there was a chestnut tree across the road from where I lived when I was little but had no idea until I was much older that those spiky green balls held something so tasty! 🌰 Happy holidays, Maangchi-nim!
Cute!
Love the videos so informative and you have an awesome personality
This is very difficult to find for other very good organic food my hometown I used to eat raw, and many more to explain natural forest food I'm from nagaland, live in goa india doing work as kitchen helper I like your cooking items, sorry for my bad English I'm uneducated thanks
Thank you for sharing this with me and merry Christmas ❤
I love chestnuts i didn't know i could cook them this way. i grill them and eat them fresh no boiled water! it looks yummy 😍😊
Thanks Maangchi, for the tips about preparing chestnuts and sharing your love for chestnuts too!😄
겨울 최고의 간식 밤, 고구마!!!
Looking good, Maangchi! I want to say 감사합니다! Thanks to you I decided to take a Korean language class. Its a very beginner class, but I know all the food words thanks to you! I go to the Korean grocery store and read the price signs to learn new words. I'm having so much fun! 잘 먹겠습니다!
Oh, this gives me so many ideas! I love this!
wowwwwww 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
looks delicious 🤤🤤🤤
thanks for sharing 😊
Thank you for sharing in Germany we eating them roasted and cooked 👍🏻👍🏻🤗
Thank you for posting!
I'm excited to try soon - and for the dessert video (yum)!
Thanks a lot for the 1st comment on this video! Happy cooking!
I’ve always wondered and now I’m here to learn !!
Thank you Maangchi! Chestnut is delicious food!
Thank you for sharing how to clean and separate the bad ones. Im going on a chestnut hunt (Ive never seen any of my local stores carry them).
We call it GAO LUCK here! Chestnuts roasted in heated gravel! 😋
I love chestnuts, but they're quite expensive and hard to get (no market want to storage and sell them, as they get dry and moldy to quick), so sometimes I get them from internet...I love them roasted on butter 😋
우와 좋은정보 감사합니다😊
I LOVE CHESTNUT 😋
chesttnuts are really good, but hard to find, I love making marrons glace
My grandma used to cook a lot of chestnuts in autumn. She also made chestnut puree a lot of times. I still do not know if that's a side dish or a desert, since it's a little bit on the sweeter side.
Not much of a chestnut fan, but can't wait for the next chestnut recipe. 😁
Roasted Chestnuts are sold everywhere in Italy. It’s so delicious.
미국 시골인데 구하기도 어렵고, 봐도 너무 비싸더라구요 ㅠ 밤 쪄먹고 싶다
Wow - that is so much easier than roasting them!
Thanks Maangchi❤❤❤
❤
항상 건강하세요🌼
Thanks for the video
삶은밤을 껍질 한쪽을 벗기구 숟가락으로 먹었을때가 생각나네요 최곱니다
요즘같이 추운날에는 군밤이죠 ㅎㅎ
I am a German lady and I also feel very connected to you. I bought chestnuts yesterday. 🙂
👍
Next time score it before boil, easier to peel. Put chestnut on coke cap for stable so won't run away and score chestnut tips cross. Either steam or boil, chestnut will split the tip so you can feel easily
I also love chestnut. Known to me as Portuguese nut.
Growing up my grandma had a neighbor with a chestnut tree and we always had roasted chestnuts for Christmas.
In Germany they also sell them but I have never tried them. I defiantly need to buy some soon!
I've tried roasting chestnuts with limited success. I'm going try your way and boil. Thanks! Hello from Corvallis Oregon, US
I love chestnut but they are hard to peel
In France too we eat a lot of chestnuts. Good in marmelade too
한국인에겐 특색 가장 살리기 힘든 제철 재료가 밤이라는 우스갯소리가 있죠... 몽블랑이든 밤조림이든 어떻게 해도 바밤바 아이스크림 맛이 나서 😂
저는 찐 밤을 포슬포슬하게 으깨서 다식처럼 꿀로 뭉쳐 먹는 걸 좋아해요!
chestnuts cook.. like this mom
I like them raw or roasted in the oven 🤩 thank you for sharing
I love chestnut and leek soup I recommend to everyone very much ❤
The soup sounds very interesting!
It looks delicious! From Japan❤
Maangchi, these chestnuts are flawless!!!!!!!!! #maangchirules
I remember a while ago maybe several years ago she made Chestnut cookies
Yes, it's yullan! czcams.com/video/BnxF6nc0ZGA/video.html
So cute mom 😌😍
I love Maangchi so much. I tried to roast chestnuts before I watched this video and it was a disaster. So now I will try Maangchi's way!
I am a chestnuts girl as well 😍, usually I'm using my pressure cooker
Hmmm... It's look like amazing taste....
Will try for my family
Thank u so much for this information ☺️☺️☺️
Most welcome 😊
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍dat is lekker..lekker.....bedank.
I am a Chestnut girl too. I have such good memories eating them with my mom.
my mom & i are also chestnut girls! & of italian heritage :D we love to roast them but all the ones i've bought nearby are always moldy so i haven't had them in a while ;_;
*I really like chestnuts❤*
감사합니다. Never tried chestnuts before but I just bought some
❤ 👍
I truly love chestnut, apart from baking, steaming and braising. In Hong Kong we have chestnut cakes too 😮😅

Watching this video while eating roasted chestnuts 😍
: )
I bake them in the oven 😊
얼마 전에 칼집 들어간 약단밤 사서 에어후라이어에 20분 돌려먹으니 껍질까지 쉽게 까지더라구요~ 엄청 달구요
미국에도 이런거 있으면 잘 팔리려나 모르겠네요 ㅎㅎ
맛있겠네요!
جربيها مشويه على الفحم او بالفرن ستحبيها اكثر .❤
My mom has a family's receipt to make chestnut cream. It's delicious!
Sounds great!
I never taste this before. But all grocery stores and stores has cans of chestnuts that I hate taste because of company make this. I notice you just plain cook with water and I notice other series that cook with air fryer. I will try yours when I have a new apt, ok. I love watch your shows.
Water chestnuts available India looks different.. The farmers smoke them first before selling , and they become black..we call it "singada". As you said, it's really hard to open it's shell. In markets here, we get ready to eat "white part inside" as well. Tender one's are also available and are in green color. They are more crunchy and delicious. ✨🫶🏻
Hear not found chestnut 😊but your video is very helpful 👍you are very beautiful sister ❤❤
lovly
Chestnut girl also~ But shelling and skinning (omg the skin) is a huge pain! I will eat them this way now, with a spoon. Thanks Maangchi!
Here in Germany, around Christmas season, you also have lots of little street food huts (usually in the shape of a locomotive!) Selling roasted chestnuts. However, they dont come with a spoon so you have to peel them while walking, which often results in bleeding fingernails 😅
I'll definitely try your method when cooking them at home next time!
"...you have to peel them while walking, which often results in bleeding fingernails" Ouch!
The wonder why the 🐿️ love chestnut wow😊
That’s true Maangchi, once i start eating chestnuts it makes me eat more until the bowl of chestnuts are gone and it’s filling too
: )
Sometimes at the deli section at the Asian grocery story, they have these already cooked and pre-packaged. You mentioned when you were younger you opened them with your teeth. That's what I do in the car after I check out. I'm too impatient to wait until I get home and open them up with a knife like you do. I feel like a squirrel opening them with my teeth.
i tried chestnuts for the first time last year. This looks SO much easier than trying to cut an X and roast them. I will try this next time I can find some. They disappear quickly here when we have them in stock and I may have already missed my chance for this year 😭
Awesome! 👏
Korean Chestnuts are the best.
