Note: how to choose a good chestnut? Look at the color. Some raw chestnuts look bright on the surface and deep in color, such as chocolate. Don't buy such chestnuts. They are old. If you want a lighter color (like coffee with more partners) and the surface is covered with a thin layer of powder, the new chestnut is not very glossy. Second, look at the fluff. We all know that chestnut tail has a lot of fluffy, that kind of surface is bright, old chestnut hair is generally less, only a little bit in the tail tip. The new chestnut tail is generally more fluffy. Third, there is no wormhole on the surface. Look around. There is a kind of Japanese chestnut, which is very big and pleasant, but it has high water content, less sweetness and high yield, and its taste is not as good as that of domestic varieties. The second is a common medium-sized variety, which has some differences in taste according to different places of origin. The third kind is not very common. It's very small, but it's usually chestnut. It's really green food and tastes sweet. 5. Look at the shape. The common chestnut can be roughly divided into two shapes, the first is round on one side and flat on the other; the second is flat on both sides. Choose the first one when you want to be sweet, or the second one when you want to be sweet. The reason why chestnuts are flat on both sides of the shell is simple: the rounder the chestnuts are, the better the chestnuts are. The sugar content of many fruits also has a lot to do with sunshine time. That's why chestnuts on the outside are sweeter than chestnuts on the inside. If you don't eat raw chestnut, you'd better put it in a mesh bag or sieve, and put it in a cool and ventilated place.
