It depends where you live and the time of the year, I'm sure. I buy mine at the supermarket during Autumn.

Awesome. My husbands uncle grows chestnuts and I never really knew what to do with them. Thank you.

Sure, it just depends on your own taste.

Thanks! That means we can add other flavorings (eg curry powder) by rubbing the spice into the slit part of the chestnuts to help enhance or give different flavours?

Pedro Carreira

Thank you! Yes, it's very simple and you can dip the chestnuts on the salt if you want some extra flavor.

I guess not, but the deeper you cut them the drier they'll get, so it just depends on your taste :)
