Family Favorite Chestnut Recipes for Every Season

Personal Story

As a family that cherishes quality time spent together, Sharon, Mickey, our two daughters, and many dogs have always found joy in bonding over the art of cooking. Our little family unit comes together not only to create delicious meals but also to infuse every dish with love and memories that we'll cherish forever. Living on a chestnut and hazelnut orchard, we have begun incorporating fresh chestnuts into our family meals.

Roasted Chestnuts - A Winter Delight

In the heart of winter, there's nothing quite like the nutty aroma of Roasted Chestnuts wafting through our cozy kitchen. This simple recipe involves scoring the chestnuts, roasting them to perfection, and serving as part of a charcuterie board. It's has become a winter tradition in our household, bringing warmth and comfort on chilly evenings.

Chestnut Marinara - Another Fall Sensation

When the fall comes and chestnuts are plentiful, our family enjoys pasta with a flowery flavored marinara created by adding chopped chestnuts. This dish is not only a feast for the taste buds but also a celebration of fall's bounty, straight from the orchard farm to our table.

Future Treats

We look forward to tasting and learning a recipe from a family friend this fall when the chestnuts begin falling.
