Chestnuts are not like other nuts. They are mostly starch, so ten of them have 45 g of carbs and only 2 g of fat.
That makes them 200 kcal for ten, which is a lot lighter than a handful of almonds or walnuts for the space they take.
A paper cone from a Christmas market stall is about ten. At home they go in stuffing or roasted with sprouts.
Tips
- 1Buy a small bag and share it while you walk around the market.
- 2Add a few to sprouts instead of a lot of butter for a richer taste.
