[nafex] Chestnuts



They are best raw, American chestnuts are the sweetest of the chestnuts. 
Most people I know love Chestnuts raw. You have to wait for any chestnut a 
while after picking before they are sweet. We set in our treestands while 
deer hunting and peel and eat chestnuts, raw. I also put them in soups and, 
stews, stuffing and others even after they get rock hard. We peel and freeze 
a lot when they are ready and raw. Then we take a container out and put in 
fridge to thaw and use as snacks from the fridge.

They are hard when raw.
You roast them to eat them.
Not much good raw.
