Idiot-proof, Easy-peel, Roasted Chestnuts.

No guarantees though.

You know what's crazy? Chestnuts are currently cheaper than cucumbers, pound to pound. And cucumbers are 95% water.
Let that sink in for a moment.

That's why this isn't some nostalgic childhood memory chase, it's really about extracting the most nutrition and value out of my hard-earned inherited money.

For my wife and daughter though, it's a different story.

Hana has this memory of eating persimmons and chestnuts at her grandparents’ home in Fukuoka. And she is fortunate to have tasted good ones in Japan, and the Melbourne ones aren't bad too.

Now, the first rule of easy-peel roasted chestnuts is to buy fresh chestnuts.
