Sig's Marone Chestnut and Chocolate Puree step by step

  1. If you use canned or vacuum packed chestnuts you can just heat them up very gently for ten minutes them with the milk . If you use fresh chestnuts you need to remove them from their green and bristle like casing. Then you need to remove the hard dark brown outer skin. Once you have done this make a slight cross cut into the bottom and then boil them in a little water for ten minutes. It makes it easier to peel away the slightly velvet like skin and it helps to puree the chestnuts easier .After that they are ready to use the same same as canned or vacuum packed ready to eat chestnuts ..

  2. To the milk and chestnut add the rum the sugar, heat through very gently for about ten minutes..

  3. Run a knife through the vanilla bean and scrape the seeds into the puree, take of the heat . Now puree thisnuntil very smooth . Add your chocolate and let it melt into the puree , combine well. Do not allow to boil ..

  4. Set aside and let this cool completely ..

  5. Whip your cream and fold it carefully under the puree. Chill at least for 10 to 15 minutes , but can be chilled for a few hours if using heavy or double cream.. You should get a similar consistency to a mousse but with less air bubbles . I had some double cream left over so I used that .The whipping or lighter cream would work too for for a quick result on the day..

  6. Mix the honey juice and rum and soak some fruit that is cut or sliced in the liquid for the ten minutes chilling time of the puree. Use this to garnish and pour a little over the puree and serve straight away. Hope you enjoy..

In the past we've promoted De Coppi Marone and this is an excellent variety but the Chiusa Pesio is (in our opinion) just that little bit better.

Like with most fresh produce, there are many different varieties of chestnuts and each has its own distinctive characteristics.

The four most-planted varieties are Red Spanish, Purton's Pride, De Coppi Marone and Bouche de.

Our wonderful recipe for candied chestnuts brings their unique and warmly sweet flavor into your kitchen.

For chocolate montebianco, add two to four teaspoons of Dutch cocoa and rum to taste to the chestnut puree.
