Chestnuts are widely used foods for chestnuts, simmered dishes and sweets. There are several kinds such as Japanese chestnut (Wakuri), Chinese chestnut and European chestnut, but the big chestnut in Dantots is Japanese chestnut! Especially the chestnuts of Kyoto and Tamba are famous for large grain.
Chestnuts that are classified as the same kind as nuts are hardly broken by heat because Vitamin C is wrapped in starch quality, and recovery of fatigue and beauty effect can be expected! I am happy.
In addition, a type of polyphenol called "tannin" contained in astringent skin, antioxidant effect, anticaging effect can be expected! It is a food that you want to taste by all means during the period when summer tiredness can not be exhausted quite well

How to choose chestnut / preserved tech

<How to choose>
The surface of the leather is smooth and there are gloss and good.
The gritty portion at the bottom is whitish and those with weight are good. Those with holes are cautionful because there is a high possibility that insects are eating.

<How to Save>
Raw chestnuts are easy to attach insects, the moisture evaporates over time and the taste falls. Since the quality does not change so much even if frozen, if you can not eat it right away, put it in a "zip lock freezer bag" and let it frozen and preserve

 

 

 

 

 

 

When using, you can boil it as frozen, use it as a chestnut, boil it for about 5 minutes and thaw it, you can cook it like a raw one if you peel
