Boiled Chestnuts In a Pressure Cooker

Boiled Chestnuts In a Pressure Cooker

Chestnuts are the perfect winter snack. They are warm, sweet and savory, and provide a lot of fiber and nutrients. This is a quick and easy method to prepare them, and you won’t need an ‘open fire.’

Chestnuts are a starchy type of nut and, unlike most other nuts, have a higher carbohydrate content and a lower fat content. Not only are they rich in fiber, but they are also rich in manganese, potassium, vitamin C, and B vitamins, including folate and copper.
