How to cook chestnuts with sugar?
According to 500g chestnuts,

1. Wash the chestnuts you bought first, and then draw a "ten" on each chestnut with a knife. We must grasp the strength. Chestnuts can't be chopped or scratched lightly. You should cut the chestnut shell, not the chestnut meat. If conditions permit, you can put the word "ten" on both sides;

2. Put cold water in the pot. After the cold water boils, put the cut chestnuts into hot water, then cover the pot and cook for about 20 minutes.

3. Take the chestnuts out of the pot, put them in hot water, wash them and drain them; Pour out the waste water in the pot, clean the pot, then add hot water, add the freshly washed chestnuts and continue cooking. The hot water in the pot does not need chestnuts;

4. After the water in the pot is boiled, put the sugar in the pot. The weight is about a catty of chestnuts plus 200 grams of sugar, and then the sugar is dizzy in the pot;

5. Boil for about 20 minutes, and the chestnuts in sugar water will be cooked. By this time, the chestnut has absorbed the sugar into the chestnut meat. When you open the chestnut, it is full of the aroma of chestnut meat and tastes sweet.
