Chestnut has been a very
important nutrition for humans
since the ancient ages.
According to the researchers,
people who lived around the
Alpine region in ancient times
had a chestnut rich eating
routine for 4 – 6 months of the
year. Chestnut consumption
per person was around 150 kg
annually. This wonder of nature is
a product of organic agriculture
which is cultivated under
completely natural conditions
without the use of any pesticide
or artificial fertilizer… That is why
it has always been an important
nutrition since the ancient ages.

Cuisine as well as the cuisines
of many Northern Hemisphere
countries. It is used as a flavor
enhancer in meat dishes and

Chestnuts are transformed into a
sweet flour when ground instead
of forming an oily structure
similar to those of almonds
and hazelnuts. It can be used
as an alternative product in the
preparation of desserts and
soups for children since cow
milk can sometimes have an
allergic effect on children due
to the lactose in cow milk. This
flour is also used for making
milk pudding, bread and corn
flakes type products. Edible fresh
chestnuts also contain fibrous
materials of high quality such
as starch and various sugars.
100 grams of edible chestnuts
provide about 160 kcal energy on
average.
Here are some suggestions for
chestnut consumption: score the
top sides of chestnuts with the tip
of a sharp knife prior to cooking
them. Use a knife with a short
handle if possible; this will make
it easier for you. Afterwards wash
and dry the chestnuts. Cook
them on a grill or on an oven with
only the top grill on. You can also
cook them on the stove or on the
barbecue. In addition, you can
also cook chestnut kebab in a
Teflon pan.
Chestnut also has a story that
is well known. Legend has it
that there was a 4 thousand
year old giant chestnut tree in a
village in Southern Europe. The
tree covered almost the entire
village with its body of 50 meter
diameter and large leaves. The
leaves of the tree was believed
to distribute justice and the tree
was known as, “an army of 200
knights”… One can never know
if it is the sovereignty of the tree
or the elixir of love that gave way
to this story, but it is a fact that
chestnut suits winter nights...
