Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Yield Makes about 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 jar (14.8 ounces) chestnuts
2 1/4 cups whole milk, plus more if needed
Pinch of salt
1/2 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Combine chestnuts, milk, and salt in a saucepan. Using the tip of a paring knife, scrape seeds from vanilla bean into pan, and toss in pod. Bring to a simmer, and cook, partially covered, until chestnuts are very soft and all but about 1/2 cup of the liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.
  • Pour mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, reserving chestnuts and cooking liquid separately and discarding vanilla pod. Process chestnuts in a food processor until very smooth, adding reserved cooking liquid (and additional milk if needed), 1 tablespoon at a time, until mixture is the consistency of a thick spread. Pour through a large-mesh sieve. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to use.

3-INGREDIENT CHESTNUT PUREE WITH WHIPPED COCONUT CREAM



3-Ingredient Chestnut Puree With Whipped Coconut Cream image

Super simple using minimal ingredients, this chestnut puree dessert recipe is a great way to create a special and unique dessert.

Provided by Maša Ofei

Time 1h10m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 3

30 chestnuts weighing around 550g / 1.21 pounds (I used the Kunama Delight variety, feel free to use any variety that is good for boiling)
2 tablespoons coconut sugar
⅓ cup / 80ml water

Steps:

  • Cut the chestnuts across the top and place in a saucepan. Fill with cold water enough to cover the chestnuts and place on medium-high heat. Cook for 30-35 minutes. They're ready when they're no longer chalky and hard to break apart.
  • Peel them as soon as you can, without burning yourself as it's so much easier to get the skin off while they are still pretty hot.
  • Crumble the chestnuts into a food processor with an S blade and add the sugar. Blend until a crumbly consistency is formed. Add the water and blend until you reach a puree consistency. Set aside.
  • Make the whipped coconut cream.
  • Serve the chestnuts puree in even quantities and add coconut cream on top.
  • Serve immediately.

15 BEST CHESTNUT RECIPES - THE SPRUCE EATS

From thespruceeats.com
  • Oven-Roasted Chestnuts. If you live in or visit many major cities across Europe and the U.S., you will see roasted chestnuts appear at street stalls throughout the late autumn and winter.
  • Chestnut Pasta in Butter and Sage Sauce. While traditionally associated with Italian peasants, flour made from chestnuts originally came about as an alternative for those who couldn’t afford wheat flour.
  • Vegan Chestnut Soup. This smooth roasted chestnut soup has all the subtle flavors of the tree nut, with added nutrition from carrots and veggie broth, all lightly spiced with cloves and bay leaves.
  • Chestnut Stuffing. Whether you make this tasty stuffing as a Thanksgiving side or a comfort food dish for another meal, you’ll love the addition of meaty chestnuts for a different texture and flavor.
  • Marrons Glacé. In France, these decadent candied chestnuts sell out quickly, because the flavor is so popular. Create them at home for an indulgent treat that would work great as a party or even wedding flavor.
  • Karyoka Truffles. Try karyoka or Turkish truffles made from chocolate-covered chestnut puree sprinkled with chopped pistachios, for a different twist on holiday candy.
  • Tuscan Chestnut Cake. This unleavened chestnut dessert tastes like a cross between a slightly sweet cake and a flatbread, and usually appears on fall tables in Tuscany.
  • Roast Goose and Chestnut Stuffing. Before turkey took over, goose often starred as the centerpiece at holiday meals. Stuffed with a savory chestnut filling, this rolled goose roast comes out tender and moist thanks to a water bath that keeps it from drying out.
  • Sweetened Chestnut Purée. Used in a variety of Italian, French, and Hungarian desserts, sweetened chestnut puree has a nutty, subtle flavor that levels up a range of desserts.
  • Roasting Chestnuts on the Grill. Forget about an open fire—roast your chestnuts on the grill for a smoky, toasty flavor. The high, intense heat your grill can deliver will result in a deliciously sweet taste.

  • Stir into ice cream or yogurt. Sweet and nutty, chestnut cream is delicious with sweet and creamy foods like ice cream or yogurt.
  • Top pancakes or crêpes. Instead of maple syrup, chestnut cream is a delicious topping for pancakes, crêpes, waffles, and more!
  • Fill cookies. Sandwich two cookies together with chestnut cream, or fill the indent of thumbprint cookies.
  • Whip with cream. Combine chestnut cream and heavy cream and whip until stiff peaks form. This nutty combination is especially good with fresh berries.
  • Spread into a sandwich. Forget peanut butter and jelly—use chestnut cream in your sandwich instead! Sliced bananas are a nice addition as well.
  • Melt into a ganache. In a small saucepan, combine chestnut cream with heavy cream, chocolate, and a pinch of salt. Whisk over moderate heat to make an incredible ganache that’s delicious drizzled over ice cream and other desserts.
  • Whisk into a simple syrup. Heat equal parts water and chestnut cream over low heat and whisk together until melted and homogenous. Add a splash to seltzer for a delicious homemade chestnut soda!
  • Stir into hot chocolate. Add a spoonful of chestnut cream to a cup hot chocolate for a nuttier, creamier version of the drink.
  • Frost a cake. Add chestnut cream to your favorite frosting or buttercream preparation and spread the mixture between layers of cake or to top a cupcake.
