A Dramatically Easy Way to Peel Chestnuts with a Pressure Cooker
I always have a hard time peeling fresh chestnuts every year. After trying a lot of ways to do it, I found this great method.
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Put a cut into the bottom of each chestnut using the heel of a knife. The cut should be about 5 mm, and you just need to pierce the outer shell!
* Step 2
Put the pierced chestnuts and 1 cup of water in a pressure cooker, bring up to pressure over high heat, then cook under pressure for 7 minutes over medium heat.
* Step 3
Turn the heat off, and bring the pressure down by running cold water over the lid.
* Step 4
When the pressure gauge comes down, remove the lid. The chestnuts will be hot to start, so remove out one at a time with a spoon, covering with the lid each time to keep the rest warm.
* Step 5
Dip the hot chestnuts in a bowl of cold water quickly, then start peeling with a spoon. One!
* Step 8
Soak the peeled chestnuts in water.
* Step 9
If you want to eat the chestnuts as is, let the pressure of the cooker come down naturally and then start peeling.
