1: Carefully select some fresh chestnuts in the vegetable market, and try to choose the ones with hard and shiny shells.
2. Rinse the chestnuts, drain the water, and cut a small mouth on the back with a knife (be careful not to hurt your hands).
3: Put it on the steamer, turn to medium heat after the fire starts 15-20 minutes and continue steaming until the chestnuts open.
When you see the golden chestnut meat at the opening of the chestnut, you can poke it gently with chopsticks. You can turn off the fire when it is cooked. Be careful when taking it out and peeling it.
Tips for steaming chestnuts:
There are many ways to peel fresh chestnuts. Chestnuts can be cut into a small hole on the back, soaked in boiling water for five minutes and peeled, or they can be opened and heated in the microwave oven for about three minutes, which is also very easy to peel.
