Editorial Reviews: Minerva Roasted Chestnuts are imported from France. Use these peeled and roasted chestnuts to prepare one of the regional dishes based on chestnuts: Ardeches salad, Corsican brilloli (chestnut polenta), or brisolee, a dish from Valais consisting of chestnuts roasted with cheese. They will also make a tasty addition to your Thanksgiving turkey stuffing. But be sure to buy enough: these chestnuts are so tasty that you will be tempted to eat them straight from the jar! 2 jars/Net Weight: 14.8 oz. each
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: If They're Your Only Choice... Comment: ... jarred and vacuum-packed chestnuts may be close enough to the real thing to deceive your palate. The real thing is increasingly problematical in the USA, available only part of the year at best, often of poor quality, sometimes of such terrible quality that you'll give up on chestnuts forever. And of course, even if you can get good chestnuts, they are hard work to prepare in sufficient quantity for many recipes. This offering, by the way, is shockingly expensive; the same or similar imported jarred chestnuts are sold in my local markets in SF for half this price or less. One of my cage-mates in the amazoo requested this recipe: Equal quantities of roasted chestnuts and fresh Brussels sprouts. Roast and peel the chestnuts (or use these pale substitutes from the jar). Steam the sprouts, but somewhat less than completely. Braise the chestnuts and sprouts together in an ample amount of unsalted butter, with just a hint of garlic (not powder of course!), until the sprouts take a bit of brown color. Serve hot. Very well matched with a puree of potatoes and celery root, and roasted duck. Customer Rating: Summary: Terrible Comment: We ordered two jars of these cooked and peeled chestnuts. The vacuum was opened on one bottle and we tossed it out. The seal on the second jar was OK but the chestnuts were mealy. We tossed it out. I think we should get our charges refunded. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Chestnuts! Comment: Absolutely delicious chestnuts. My Dad has tried other brands and these are his favorites by far. Mine too! Thanks! Customer Rating: Summary: Roasted Chestnuts but no taste Comment: Roasted Chestnuts are a tradition with my family on Christmas day but this purchase of chestnuts was very disappointing due to the lack of flavor of the chestnuts themselves...no flavor even with using my chestnut roaster. The texture was perfect as well as the color but lacked taste in the mouth. Thank you. Customer Rating: Summary: Best jarred chestnuts I've tried Comment: I used chestnuts from a jar or can for the Thanksgiving stuffing every year because I don't have the time to roast and peel. Other brands leave a lot of the hard black membranes on the nuts, so I still had to pick through them. Not this brand...they were very clean, fresh and made preparation that much easier.
