• Fresh Chestnuts

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire...Traditional fresh chestnuts. Everyone loves that delicious taste and unforgettable smell of fresh roasting chestnuts. These are the largest chestnuts grown, and are flown in from Italy. To help preserve their freshness, your bag might arrive with little holes punched in them. This is normal and is done only to keep them fresh. Chestnuts have a very high moisture content, and are extremely perishable. They must be stored under refrigeration in as close to freezing temperatures as possible. It is also recommended that they are stored with as high humidity as possible. If stored in this manner, they can stay fresh for a couple of weeks. We recommend storing the nuts in perforated plastic bags, or solid plastic bags that you've put some holes in. Place a damp paper towel in with them. To cook chestnuts, you can boil them or roast them. When roasting, cut a small slit in the chestnut to prevent them from exploding during the roasting process. Bake in the oven at 425 for 10-15 minutes or until the outer skin begins to peel back. You can also cook on the stove top or over an open flame. This product is certified kosher. Feedback! "If I didn't already have 5 grown sons, I'd adopt ya'll!!! Just placed my third order! Got the alert about the new shipment of Fresh Chestnuts!! Thanks!! It's that time of year and you saved the day!! I don't have to schlep from store to store looking for them, you'll deliver to my door in no time flat!" -- Carolyn "Hi Guys! Don't have but a minute!! I've got my FRESH CHESTNUTS scored and in the oven....Oh! My!! It's smelling gooood in my Okie kitchen this evening! Only bad thing....my UPS guy now recognizes the shipping label..he stands around, wanting me to open the box, to "check and make sure nothing's broken"! I gave him a bag of the Fried Peas from my first order....my mistake!!! Hahaha Later! Carolyn" -- Carolyn, Norman, OK "I love chestnuts, and grew up where we had chestnut trees and a nice crop every year. I had my share of sore fingers from the "burrs". That was long ago. I have bought chestnuts locally when they were available but they were small and by the time I got them, they were not too fresh...in fact the last 3 lbs. I bought were 95 % bad. I recently bought 6 lb's from NUTS ONLINE, and have not found one single bad one. They are fresh, large, meaty and have excellent taste. The shipping was very quick and the packaging was superb. Above all, the staff at NUTS ONLINE are very friendly and I'm very happy to now be one of the "nutty" customers of NUTS ONLINE." -- Rodger, Winchester, Va "Tastiest chestnuts I've ever eaten!! Pistachios weren't bad either. Yippee!!" -- Nancy, Export, PA "The chestnuts I ordered are fantastic, delicious and very fresh. The mixed nuts are great but the pumpkin pie malted milk balls are out of this world. They were so good I took them to my sister-in-laws house so my wife and I would not eat them all in one go. The next day while visiting my sister-in-law I thought I would grab one or two of them only to find she and her family had eaten all but 7 or 8 of them. She did apologise but informed me they were so good none of them could resist!!!!" -- Nigel, Lincoln, AR "These are the chestnuts I remember from years back. In the recent years, store chestnuts have been old and after roasting you cannot get the skin off. These chestnuts are worth every penny and I can now totally agree with the other testimonials. I ordered 1 lb then re-ordered 3 more and now I'm ordering another. My father who is from Italy and is 89 years old couldn't stop bragging about these chestnuts... Please continue to provide these imported gems as the seasons allow." -- Francine, NY "We were pleasantly surprised when the chestnuts arrived for New Years Eve, even though tracking said they would arrive January 2. We roasted them in a dutch oven over an 'open fire' in our fireplace and they were delightful. Sweet, plump and a nice large size. Thanks!" -- Betti, Manhattan, KS "The testimonials you read on this Website are absolutely true! I placed an order on late Wednesday afternoon for chestnuts and had my nuts on Friday. It is almost unbelievable. One bit of information that is often left out of the testimonials is the packaging Nuts Online uses. They must be specially made. The chestnuts are in a bag with an air vent. The raw peanuts in shell come in a black bag. Clearly, this is done to protect freshness and quality of the various items, each needing its own individual protection. And the quality of every item I ordered is superb, top notch, Grade A all the way. I am so glad I came upon your Website and will be ordering again very soon! Thank you all." -- DJ, Maryland "Sorry didn't reply right away -was very busy trying each of baggies with goodies,but you know how it is -once you try you can't just stop it. It's so yummy! So, I need to go ... go nuts! But, don't worry, you will hear from me again very soon. Thanks so much - for nuts and service!" -- Alexandra "I ordered 2 lbs. of the AWESOME chestnuts and could not stop eating them. I just ordered 3 more lbs. My friends are coming over this weekend, and MAYBE I will share them !! MAYBE !!! Keep up the good work. I will be back." -- Dona "You saved our day!! We had a party and chestnuts were the main character (couldn't find at the local supermarket). It was our first time buying food online (little scared). However, they were of an excellent quality and everybody loved them. Also delivery time worked perfectly. Thanks guys" -- Elisabet, Miami, Fl "Dear Friends at Nuts Online, Received the chestnuts and fried peas in record time. Thank you so much! I'm impressed with your professionalism and great service. I'm looking forward to ordering again soon since chestnuts are really hard to find in Oklahoma and they are really hard to find as fresh as these at such a fair price! I'll be keeping your company in mind for gift-giving. If you ever decided to offer the smaller Italian type chestnuts, please let me know. Keep up the great work! I'm sending your information to my friends and family members. Sincerely, Candice" -- Candice, Okmulgee, OK "I has been well over 20 years since I moved from Pittsburgh and into Florida. That long since I have had chestnuts. I have been searching for 8 years. I have finally ended my search. Talk about prompt delivery. They arrived the day you said they would. Good job. They are as big and pretty as I remember them. I can't wait to cook some up and enjoy them. As soon as I do, I will be back with another great testimonial." -- Marcy, Pinellas Park, Florida "my chestnuts arrived yesterday. I already had the oven preheated. I was born in the east, and have missed this treat for years. I'm ashamed to admit that I ate an entire pound by myself! the ABSOLUTE best I've ever had! thanks so much for your product and the prompt delivery. Sincerely, KC stroup" -- KC Stroup, kokomo, in "I've had chestnuts all my life during the holidays, but they seem to be harder to find - at least good ones. I went on line the Friday before Thanksgiving and I took a shot, I ordered chestnuts on line (crazy, but I had nothing to lose). I received my order the very next Monday before the holiday. I had to try them. A one pound bag had approx. 25 nuts, I cooked them like I always do and to my surprize and pleasure, I was able to peel (outside and inside skin) with very little effort, and the chestnuts were great. Anybody who eats chestnuts knows that if you get all the nuts shelled without losing any it's quite an accomplishment in the chestnut eating world. I would just like to say thanks to nutsonline for making my holiday special again. Now I know I have a source for chestnuts I can count on in the future. cc" -- Charles, Peckville, Pa. "Yes indeed the chestnuts were delivered today! Thanks so much for such prompt service. They are for my best friend who loves to roast them. She will be so surprised. So glad I found you guys." -- catherine, Falmouth, Maine Leave online feedback to share your thoughts with other customers! Recipes Got a recipe you think we'd like?
