    Dear Joe. Soda is 3/18/24. I had shopped my grocery store frequently in Nov & Dec for chestnuts. Produce staff didn’t know what chestnuts were! What is happening to this world! Instead, I ordered several pounds via mail order & froze them. Today I followed you recipe exactly. They turned out perfect! Thank You! I’m making a large batch of dressing with roasted chestnuts, wild rice & cornbread. I will freeze small batches to accompany pork or chicken dishes. I had researched many videos but yours is MAGNIFICENT! Johnny in Vegas.

    What the heck are you talking about!
    I am from Italy and chestnuts are broiled on an open fire. The cooker is round about five ft tall. First bottom half is the fire and the top half as a grate where the chestnuts sit and cook, we also throw salt from the top and it gives a salty taste when the salt hits the fire and creates a smoke that goes up thru the nut and gives a nice taste. Keep your oil!

    I love chestnuts also. I use a Chestnut knife I bought for $5 it’s great to score them. While my oven is heating to 450 I boil them starting with hot tap water. Then in the oven for 15 minutes 10 to cool and they pop right open.

    I think out of all the video tutorials I have watched today, this one might produce the best tasting chestnuts. To be honest, I don't have those childhood memories of roasted chestnuts, I have never tasted one. But our local grocery store had them in and I thought....why not....
    I hope I am not disappointed and these live up to all the hype of roasted chestnuts at Christmas time.
    Thank you for sharing.

    This was a perfect video today as I was wondering last night how my Nonna used to made these. The story goes that my Sabatini relatives had a chestnut farm in Pistoia.. Sadly there’s no one left to ask about this. But I have looked up information about chestnuts and I am fascinated with the pods. I think they are beautiful so maybe it’s in my blood.

    I’m thinking your kid just got home and he’s about to force an edit on your video. Awesome method can’t wait to try it. If you like things more savory I’m curious what if the soaking liquid is a bit more of a light brine with some salt and a little brown sugar? Still finishing with the butter. How do you think that might work out? I usually like my nuts on the salty side, wait what?

    Love the video. Just one thing - the reverb. You need a better mic setup. I would assume that you're not trying to show off how big your kitchen is, but the booming echo of your voice in the room is a bit of a distraction. Now that that's out of the way, this video makes me want to go out and get some. It's been many years since I had chestnuts "roasting" on an open fire.

    Joe,
    For Christmas, my wife gifted me a chestnut scorer (looks kinda like a nutcracker). Thoughts?
    Also, would your cooking instructions be any different if I cooked these on a gas grill?
    Thanks...

    I tried making these a couple days ago, but watched a bad video with WRONG directions. By no means should anyone cook these dry in an oven for 20-30 minutes at 350F. They’ll be too hard to peel! Joe’s recipe will work though!

    Good video. Sadly this guy talks waaaay too much and a lot of it is unnecessary. Here's the quick recap.
    1-check/get rid of spoiled chestnuts.
    2- rins/dry chestnuts and then make a middle cut with a knife.
    3-soak chestnuts for 30 in water.
    4- take them out and place them in frying pan and throw in some butter and toast em.
    Done.
