CHESTNUT

Chestnut is known as the “bread tree” among the people because it is one of the first sources of food for humans. In Ottoman palace kitchens, chestnuts were frequently used, and they were never absent from the sultans’ tables. Due to the thick shells of chestnuts, all the vitamins are preserved when cooked. Chestnuts are mostly eaten fresh, boiled, or prepared as kebabs. Chestnut candies are also made. Chestnuts are also indispensable in the pastry industry.
