Notes: This is a favorite of the Van Meter family. Dad ( Homer) always bought fresh chestnuts from which we abtained the "nut" to chop. Now, obtaining the "nut" was another story. "X" cut on flat surface, boil in water about 15 min. the cross edges will curl up. Then----- peel. I was given the assignment to "peel' one year. So, I peeled the covering off - that was easy !! or so I thought. Dad looked at the them. " Well, you didn't finish - there is another layer" BUT that WAS difficult - hense the labor of love for fresh chestnuts. I atually continued through the years to peel away until sometime in the 1990's when I discovered chestnuts in a jar . WOW ! :)
