It’s autumn and chestnuts are back<\/strong> ! Here’s how to choose the best ones with some simple home tricks<\/strong> !<\/p>\n\n\n\n When autumn arrives, so does the desire for chestnuts and roasted chestnuts. At this time of year, the markets and streets are full of this tasty food<\/strong> . But did you know that there are some little tricks for choosing the right chestnuts<\/strong> ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether it’s chestnuts from the mountain forests or chestnuts from your trusted greengrocer, there are some precautions to pay attention to to make a difference in terms of taste<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you go to the supermarket, the greengrocer or the market stalls, you find yourself faced with bags full of chestnuts<\/strong> . You should know that there is a trick to choosing the really good ones or at least better than the others<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n First, at first glance, the fruit should have a shiny appearance and uniform color<\/strong> . If the skin is opaque, it is an old chestnut and the risk is that it will no longer be good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After the eyes, touch also plays an essential role<\/strong> in choosing chestnuts. By picking up a chestnut and touching it carefully, you can understand that the fruit is firm, compact and smooth, without wrinkled or creased areas. <\/strong> You also need to pay attention to the holes. This could be a sign that the chestnut tree is harboring a worm or other parasite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then try crushing them. If you can’t, it means the fruit is firm and there is no air space between the pulp and the peel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finally, once purchased and arrived home, dip the chestnuts in a basin of water. <\/strong> This is the easiest and fastest way<\/strong> to separate good, firm and ripe chestnuts from spoiled or damaged ones. In this case, the good chestnuts remain at the bottom of the container, while the damaged ones immediately rise to the surface!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s autumn and chestnuts are back !
