Thank you for this! Another reason to buy a couple pounds of chestnuts when they finally become available in late autumn.

I grew up in Northeastern PA, USA, and chestnuts were part and parcel of autumn and Christmas. When I got to CA, I was surprised that so few people knew of them or what to do with them. Supermarkets don't carry them outside of a few weeks between Hallowe'en and Christmas Day. But chestnut gathering was something we did as children and roasted chestnuts, warm from the fireplace or the oven, were a wonderful addition to a chilly autumn day and Christmas Eve festivities.

Akis, we definitely need recipes to put the chestnut puree to use...we don't have this as a common ingredient.. Chestnuts in US are usually used in Savory stuffings for Turkey at the holiday or Christmas for roasted Chestnuts as a snack alone... Would love to see what to make with this puree! thanks

Akis, does the sugar take away the taste of the chestnuts and leave it tasting sweet? I wanted to make a puree and I am still looking for ways I can do this without it affecting the taste of it. Euxaristo.

sugarfree chestnut puree + dark chocolate + rum = bliss

[Stephlovesnapping]

Kalispera Akis! Could I substitute sugar free maple syrup for the sugar in this recipe? Maybe use less water to compensate? I can't have sugar but love chestnut paste and would love to make this. Thanks for the recipe!💗💗

you meant 500 ml of water or actually 500 grams? Sorry if it's a dumb question, but I'm used to measure liquid in
Great recipe btw.Keep it awesome ;)
