    Italian Roasted Chestnuts

    List of Ingredients




    Chestnuts


    Recipe



    Preheat the oven to 400 degree F. With a small sharp knife, make a slit about 1/2 long in each chestnut the chestnut shell is tough and slippery so be careful not to cut yourself. Place chestnuts in a single layer in a jelly roll pan. Roast for about 35-40 minutes. They're done when soft enough to squeeze.
    Remove them from the oven; give each one a squeeze to open it up--much like a miniature baked potato.
    Note:
    Traditionally, one is supposed drizzle your favorite red wine into
    the flesh of each nut. There is no rule as to which wine to use; some
    like sweet wines, others like drier reds--try several, see what you like best.
