"Chestnuts roasting on an open fire ..." and visions of the chestnut tree on the village green may evoke warm memories, even if you've never tried a roasted chestnut or seen a village green. Here's how you can enjoy the fall harvest of chestnuts from a tree near you.
Pick when the nuts fall to the ground, beginning in September.
Remove nuts from hulls and spread to dry in the sun for 1 to 2 days. In very hot climates, dry chestnuts in the shade.
Store in a cool, dry place for several months.
