Fresh Chestnut - Extra Large

Traditional fresh chestnuts of the Martaínha variety with extra large size.

The Martaínha chestnut is visually characterized by its extremely rounded appearance. Due to the shape and consistency of the fruit, it is considered a gourmet nut. This fact makes this variety of chestnut the favorite to impress at family or business meals.

It is a very presentable chestnut, which fills the eye and the belly, endowed with an extremely pleasant flavor and texture, cozy even too much and with a sweet with weight and measure.

There are many ways to consume this fruit. It is a chestnut that, in addition to being roasted or cooked as a dessert, can be used in meals to replace potatoes, pasta or rice. You can bake it in an electric oven if time is a constraint or if you have more time, bake it in charcoal. If you prefer to consume it cooked, just add water, salt and a little fennel to the chestnuts, if you like the additional flavor that this herb gives.

To help preserve the chestnuts, the bags/pouches contain small holes to help keep them fresh.

Since chestnuts have a very high moisture content, they must be kept refrigerated to delay their perishability. Use a refrigerator with a temperature close to 0º to store them for several weeks. To prolong even more the conservation in a refrigerated environment, we recommend placing a damp paper towel inside the bags/bags that contain the product.
