I think it’s a crying shame certain foods only get brought out & celebrated at specific times of year, especially when they are as delicious as chestnuts are!
So in defiance of said seasonal adorations I suggest we all devour these fluffy wonders & delight not only in the fabulously festive flavours, but also the bounty of fibre, mountain of skeletal supporting minerals & veritable feast of vitamins that these babies boast too!
