 | We've all heard of roasting chestnuts on an open fire but how many of you have actually tried them out?
Chef Jason Hill shares some information about chestnuts and how to roast them. Chestnuts are in season September through February here in the U.S. and are grown on trees throughout the U.S., Europe and Asia.
When choosing fresh chestnuts, look for nice plump specimens that are free of bruising with nice shiny brown shells.
But how to roast chestnuts? I simply grab a sharp paring knife and mark an X on the flattest side of each chestnut. We do this so the nuts won't explode when they are heated.
Next, fill a large bowl with cool water and soak the nuts about 20 minutes. Preheat your oven to 400 F or get your fireplace nice and roaring. Drain the nuts and scatter on a baking sheet, X side up. Roast for about 12-18 minutes, or until the peels curl up a bit and the nuts are soft.
For chestnuts roasting on an open fire, place in a long-handled frying pan (nonstick isn't recommended), a popcorn popper or chestnut roaster. Some folks recommend covering the pan. Roast for about 20 minutes, or until the peels curl up and the nuts are soft.
We hope you enjoy this fun holiday tradition. Chestnut uses are plentiful, ranging from salted alone or dipped in sour cream, placed into turkey stuffing or candied. Enjoy!

A great classic Christmas song. Arrangement from the book "Great Songs for Fingerstyle Guitar."
This was a quick video, that i learned and played in one day. Some parts are a little bit sloppy but I think it captures the Christmas feeling. Enjoy!

 | "The Christmas Song" was written in 1944 by vocalist Mel Tormé and Bob Wells. According to Tormé, the song was written during a blistering hot summer. In an effort to stay cool by thinking cool, the most-performed (according to BMI) Christmas song was born.
"I saw a spiral pad on his piano with four lines written in pencil," Tormé recalled. "They started, 'Chestnuts roasting ... Jack Frost nipping ... Yuletide carols ... Folks dressed up like Eskimos.' Bob (Wells, co-writer) didn't think he was writing a song lyric. He said he thought if he could immerse himself in winter, he could cool off. Forty minutes later, that song was written. I wrote all the music and some of the lyrics."

 | Ever since being a child I have watched chestnuts explode and scatter the relatives as they were removed from the oven. I have tried a number of different ways of roasting chestnuts but this one works every time. If you put a little salt into the water when you are boiling them that gives a savoury taste to the sweetness of the chestnuts. If you let them boil for a few minutes it tends to soften the flesh of the chestnuts, you can see the shells opening a little and they can be roasted for a shorter time. It really depends on your taste in 'firmness' of the chestnuts. The timing in the oven depends on the size of the nuts themselves and effectively the boiling in water soaks into the husk and then makes it that the roasting assisted by steaming inside the shell. You can put them in the oven after you have been roasting the dinner. The best rule of thumb is to look at them in the tray and see how many have loosened from their shells. If you are doing this with children then you can soak them overnight. Care needs to be taken with the use of the knife; an ordinary, not ultra sharp, vegetable knife is good enough, you don't need to right throught the shell, the scoring is sufficient. No chestnuts were spared during the making of this video. Auteur: Thebanj Tags: chestnuts cooking effective roast roasting Ajoutée: samedi 15 octobre 1904 08:50:26 |

Here is a performance example of Chestnuts Roasting on an open fire.
The chords will be kind of hard to follow along with unless you have the sheet music. I recommend the "easy christmas fakebook" for a great collection of piano christmas songs! This is one of the songs in the book.
I'll be covering this song on my blog as we get closer to christmas!
