Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs chestnuts
  • 1/4 cup water

Directions:

  1. Take a cheap old frying pan, and using a hammer and large nail, or drill bit, make about 10 holes in the bottom.
  2. Put an X in the skin of each chestnut. Heat pan over flame. Add chestnuts and using a spray bottle, spray with water.
  3. Return to flame, shake pan slowly and constantly for about 15 min., occasionally spritzing with more water. (will require more yuletide songs).
  4. Place chestnuts into large metal bowl, sprinkle with salt, and toss. Place chestnuts into 8 small brown bags, sprinkle a dash more salt into bag, and serve. (or sell em on the street corner for a nickel like they did in the ol' days)!
