Score, soak, and wok-roast(25 min)
Score each chestnut with an X. Soak in warm water 10 min. Drain. Heat wok with oil and sugar on medium. Add chestnuts, toss constantly 20-25 min. The sugar caramelizes and coats the shells. The chestnuts are done when the shells curl back at the cut and the nut inside is golden, tender, and sweet.
Pro Tips for Western Kitchens
Scoring the X is essential — chestnuts explode if not cut. The X also lets the sugar syrup seep in and makes peeling effortless.
