Description
Fresh chestnuts are first boiled with their skins for two hours in boiling water. They then pass through a peeling machine to remove the thick shells. The resulting pulp is finely ground and mixed with granulated sugar and Madagascar vanilla, before being vacuum-cooked for 20 minutes. This cooking method helps preserve the authentic flavors of the chestnut.
