OMG we do this every year





set oven to 425 and take the chestnut, creat a slit in the middle of it (don't go all the way through) and back until soft (maybe 20 minutes of so)
Reply:On a shallow tray in the oven or whole with shell on under the grill but watch them like hawks, they catch very easily!
Reply:Bake them in an oven on a cookie sheet for about a half hour at 350 degrees. I warn you, though, roasted chestnuts don't taste as good as they're cracked up to be!
Reply:In the Oven
Reply:Make a bag of tin foil - place nuts in it - close bag ensure air space. Wack in hot oven (200deg C )for 20 min or so ( The bag is to stop the nut roasting too fast and/or exploding their insides over your oven)
Reply:Yep as said flat on a cookie sheet.


400 degrees 20 minutes making sure to


make two small slits.
Reply:never never try the oven, i did this once, i heard them popping, opened the oven. bloody hell ruined me kitchen and oven, at least on the open fire they have room to explode, up the chimney. When i was a kid, about 7, i bit into one that was roasted on an open fire on a shovel, exploded in my mouth. spent the evening in hospital, was OK, but bloody burnt my mouth. do not trust chestnuts, their like grenades
Reply:UHHHH.....WHAT!!!????
Reply:You can cook them in a hot oven (Gas Mark 6).





They also cook quite well in the microwave - but make sure you spike a hole in them first or they'll explode. The only drawback is you don't get the crunchy black bits.
Reply:Well in the oven but they tend to bang and pop The ossasional one explodes

Reply:In the oven or a toaster oven. If you don't have one of those you can do it on a grill. Just make sure you put them in a metal cooking sheet or pan.
