It's time to eat Chinese chestnut again. Is there a sweet smell of fried Chinese chestnut everywhere in the street? In fact, Chinese chestnut is also very delicious when boiled. How can Chinese chestnut be cooked? Is it a cold water pot or a hot water pot?
But cook chestnuts at home, how to cook them?
Some people choose to steam, but I like to cook. I've tried to cook the chestnuts in cold water and hot water. The chestnuts are totally two flavors, or they are delicious in hot water. You can experiment and see that there are great differences
First boil the water, turn off the fire, put the raw chestnuts in hot water and simmer for 15 minutes, then take them out after soaking, and then soak them in cold water, so as to peel the chestnuts
Then how can chestnut cook well? After the cold water is over, cut a knife on each chestnut with a knife. It should be deeper. When you see the pulp is the main part, then put the chestnut into the boiling water. The amount of water is less than that of the chestnut, and then put it into the pressure cooker. I use the electric pressure cooker, and set the cooking function (if there is no electric pressure cooker, you can also use gas to cook, but it takes a lot of time Between)
If the cooked chestnut is still not easy to peel, you can wait for the chestnut to cool and then put it in the refrigerator freezer layer, put it out for a while, and it's cold, not frozen, delicious and easy to peel
