Boiled chestnuts are sugar or salt?

Whether you want to add sugar or salt to your boiled chestnuts depends on your personal preference. Usually, you don't need to add any seasoning to boiled chestnuts, as they have a soft and sticky texture as well as a sweet flavor.

If you add salt, it will cause the shell to become more salty. If sugar is added, it will cause the chestnut's taste to be impure and the original sweet odor to become abnormal. Therefore, when boiling chestnuts in water, you can choose not to add seasoning or add your favorite seasoning according to personal preference.
