Food Friday: Chestnuts

candied chestnuts

Chestnuts

Roasted and candied chestnuts are my all-time favorites during Christmas season. I specially love the aroma of roasting chestnuts. And when I have the time I candy (marrons glacés) some of them which are a real treat...sooo delicious.

I love how the syrup turns those chestnuts into dark little topazes glowing with sweetness. Happy Holidays!
