Ready for rooastingI

Oh Nice Donnah.......we had some yesterday.....I love chestnuts

First time I tasted roast chestnuts was many years ago at a Bonfire night. Thought they were really chewy until someone told me that you had to take the shells off !!! Doh ! :-)))

O thats funny sue. I am lucky the chestnut tree is at the bottom of my garden, I love them raw boiled and roasted

Roasted on an open fire ! They must know it's nearly Bonfire night ! :-))

Brings back memories! My grandfather had a chestnut tree in his garden and we would roast chestnuts in an old saucepan he'd punched holes in the bottom of over a bonfire.

Love the idea of these but not the taste!

Blimey, that's brought back memories. My old Dad used to take me shopping to Lewisham (S E London) in the winter and there was a roast chestnut seller with a brazier just off the High St. Cold hands around a sixpenny bag of hot chestnuts - marvellous !

I saw packets of chestnuts in morrisons yeaterday, cooked and ready for eating.(but still in shells) I think I've seen it all now!
