As autumn arrives, seasonal fall snacks are gaining popularity. In particular, desserts made with sweet chestnuts are emerging, as chestnuts are rich in nutrients that benefit health. Let's explore the benefits of chestnuts.

 

Good for heart health and stress relief

 

Night has high levels of essential fatty acids omega-6 and omega-3, which are not produced by the body, as well as vitamin C.

 

Omega-6 and Omega-3 reduce the levels of triglycerides and cholesterol attached to blood vessels in the body, preventing heart disease.

Nighttime is when nuts contain the highest amount of vitamin C among foods, and their thick shells prevent loss even when roasted. Vitamin C is effective in relieving fatigue and helps break down alcohol.

It is also a reason why eating raw chestnuts helps prevent hangovers.

Nighttime is good for bone health.

 

28 mg of calcium per 100 g of night increases bone density.

It is especially a beneficial food for growing children and women in menopause who are at high risk of osteoporosis.

At night, vitamin B1 is also abundant. Vitamin B1 helps relieve fatigue and reduce stress. Additionally, the yellow core of the night is rich in a compound called carotenoid.

Carotenoids are representative antioxidants that prevent skin aging and boost immunity.

 

◇Shiny and firm, that's how it tastes best

 

To choose delicious chestnuts, you should carefully examine their appearance and weight. Good chestnuts have a shiny surface and feel firm to the touch. Select chestnuts with clean shells, no holes, that do not float when soaked in water, but sink instead, to ensure they are tasty.

Meanwhile, it should be stored in a cold place at around 0 degrees Celsius.

 

Because it easily spoils and is at risk of mold growth if left at room temperature. When storing, wash with water to remove foreign substances, dry in the shade after removing moisture, and store in a zipper bag or plastic bag.

 

However, it is good to make holes or wrap them with newspaper or kitchen towels to prevent moisture from accumulating at night. Boiling the chestnuts and storing them in the freezer allows for long-term storage. When peeling the chestnut shells, pour boiling water over the raw chestnuts and leave them for about 10 minutes; this makes it easier to remove the shells.

I stayed up all night and finished everything.

What should I do to make a living?

 

I'm planning to make rice cooked in a pot today.

I need to get some sleep.

 

A sweet night-flavored rice dish would probably taste good too.
