Ingredients

  • 30-40 Raw Chestnuts

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 F.
  • Slash an X with a sharp knife on the flat side of each chestnut. This prevents them from bursting.
    30-40 Raw Chestnuts
  • Place the chestnuts on a baking sheet and place them in the oven to roast for 15 to 20 minutes if you just want to shell them or 20 to 30 minutes for well cooked chestnuts, shaking the baking sheet occasionally.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool until they can be handled. Peel them when still hot. They’ll be hard to peel if you let them cool, but you can always reheat them.
