Fruit are ovoid, woody green pod which can reach 2-5cm in length and resemble a kapok or silk floss seed pod. The tightly packed nuts inside enlarge until the pod bursts and fall to the ground. These can be eaten raw or roasted. The raw nuts taste like peanuts and will keep for months in a cool, dry place. Roast nuts with oil and garlic or grind into flour for baking.
Place the chestnuts in dry grass and waters them. One week later the sprouts are ready to eat! These sprouts have a fresh, crunchy, nutty taste and are absolutely delicious!
