4 cups chicken stock or 4 cups turkey broth
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg (try fresh grated !)
1/4-1/2 tsp ground cayenne pepper , depending on degree of hotness desired
1 cup whipping cream

paprika, for garnish
minsed parsley, for garnish

Directions:

Mix purée and stock in a large saucepan, and cook for 30 minutes over medium to medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
Add nutmeg, cayenne, and cream, and stir well.
Do not let soup boil once the cream has been added, or it might curdle.
Serve in mugs, garnished with paprika and parsley.
TO MAKE PURÉE: If chestnuts are fresh, cut an X in each one and then simmer in water to cover for 15 minutes or roast in the oven 15 to 20 minutes at 375°F.
Peel chestnuts and purée, adding a bit of the stock if necessary.
