Imi place mult toamna sa fac diverse preparate de sezon: gem de gutui, de prune, dovleac copt, placinta cu mere, suc de sfecla, mere si ghimbir… Parca miresmele acestea fac venirea sezonului rece mai placuta :) Iar pentru ca nu am copt niciodata castane si imi place piureul de castane, am preparat astazi varianta mea, homemade :) Castanele sunt si o alegere extrem de sanatoasa, contin fibre, multe vitamine si minerale, aflati mai multe despre ele aici.
Ingrediente:
- 700g castane (550g decojite)
- 4-5 lg sirop de artar (sau indulcitorul preferat, dupa gust)
- 400m apa plata
- 1 pastaie de vanilie
- 1 lg esenta de rom (sau rom Stroh)
Crestam castanele cu cutitul de jur imprejur, apoi le asezam pe o tava intinsa tapetata cu hartie de copt si le coacem 20-30 de min in cuptorul preincalzit la 170C, pana se desfac frumos ca in imagine. Le lasam sa se raceasca, apoi le decojim si le punem in robotul de bucatarie, alaturi de celelalte ingrediente.
Puteti ajusta densitatea cremei, punand mai multa sau mai putina apa, la fel si pentru cat de dulce vreti sa fie: gustati si mai adaugati indulcitor, daca doriti. Depozitati crema in borcane de sticla, in frigider. Pofta mare!

ENGLISH VERSION
I love preparing autumn goodies: quince jam, plum jam, apple pie, roasted pumpkin, apple, beetroot and ginger juice… I feel that these lovely autumn goodies make this colder season more pleasant :) And because I’ve never roasted chestnuts and I love chestnut puree, I made it myself :)
Ingredients:
- 700 g chestnuts (550 g peeled)
- 4-5 tbsp maple syrup (or favorite sweetener, to taste)
- 400 ml water
- 1 vanilla bean
- 1 tbsp rum essence
Cut the chestnuts around, then place them on a tray lined with baking paper. Bake them for about 20-30 min at 170 C, until their shells start to bloom. Let them chill a little, then remove their shells and place them in the food processor, along with the rest of the ingredients.
You can adjust how thick or sweet you want the puree, by adding more or less water/sweetener. Store in a glass jar, in the fridge. Enjoy!
