Is it better to have a large chestnut or a small chestnut.

Chestnuts are not just based on size, they can be both large and small. The main thing is to look at the quality of the chestnuts, if they are not bad, the taste will not be too bad.

There are large, medium, and small chestnuts. For the more flavorful chestnuts, you still have to choose small and medium-sized ones, and this kind of chestnut is very sweet.

There is a kind of Japanese chestnut, which is very large and very pleasing, but this chestnut has a lot of moisture, less sweetness, high yield, and the taste is not as sweet as the domestic variety.

The second type is the common medium-sized common variety, which has some differences in taste depending on the place of origin.

The third type is not very common, it is very small, but this is generally mountain chestnut, a real green food, with a sweet taste.

Difference Between Large Chestnut and Small Chestnut.

1.The growing environment is different.

Kuancheng chestnut generally grows on the slopes of the mountains with high iron ore content and the rising sun, requiring a large temperature difference between day and night, high organic matter and mineral content in the soil, basically a wild growth state, the whole growth process does not apply chemical fertilizers, does not need to water, does not need to spray pesticides. The Beijing chestnut, Shandong cabbage, Dandong cone chestnut and so on generally grow on flat land, need to be fertilized and watered, and do not have too high requirements for soil and climate.

2.The quality is different.

Kuancheng chestnut is slightly smaller, thin skin, easy to peel, high in mineral and trace element content, and has the unique qualities of waxy, soft, sweet and fragrant. The quality of Beijing oil chestnut, Shandong vegetable chestnut, Dandong cone chestnut, etc. is very different.

3.The market is different.

Kuancheng chestnut is about three yuan higher than Beijing oil chestnut per city jin, and about five yuan higher than Shandong vegetable chestnut per city jin, it can be said that Kuancheng chestnut is the highest and best quality organic chestnut in China. 

Small ones are relatively better, because large chestnuts are almost always cultivated, while small ones are different, small chestnuts are generally wild and artificially cultivated, but there are very few. Wild small chestnuts contain a lot more nutrients than large artificially grown chestnuts, and the taste is sweet and delicious, so I recommend eating small chestnuts if you want to eat them.

Chestnuts are rich in unsaturated fatty acids, vitamins and minerals, which can prevent and treat hypertension, coronary heart disease, arteriosclerosis, osteoporosis and other diseases, and are a good tonic for anti-aging and longevity chestnut 1

Which is better, large chestnut or small chestnut is uncertain, this focus depends on the origin and variety, the size of the chestnut is not an important criterion to measure the nutrition and taste of the chestnut, and even the quality of the chestnut cannot be judged by the size at all.

Generally speaking, chestnuts in some well-known production areas in China have very good varieties, all of which are types with good taste and rich nutrients. Whether it is a large chestnut or a small chestnut, the difference in nutritional value is not very large, and it has similar effects. A long time ago, Chinese medicine in China applied chestnut to diseases, and found that chestnut can play a role in strengthening the body, and stomach and spleen, blood circulation and swelling, kidney and yang and other effects, and for fracture pain, cold diarrhea, waist and knee soreness and other symptoms also have the best effect, modern science found that chestnut in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases obvious effect.

Chestnuts should be light in color, with a lot of fluff and a less shiny shell, and don't blindly pick a big one. Because the color is dark, the hair is less, and the appearance is bright is the characteristics of old chestnuts, and old chestnuts are not delicious, so it is not recommended to buy them. And small chestnuts tend to be sweeter than big chestnuts and tastier than large chestnuts.

Another tip is to pay attention to the shape of the chestnuts, which are sweeter than those that are round on one side and flat on the other side than those that are flat on both sides.

When buying chestnuts, whether large or small, keep in mind the "3 don't buy".

Today we will discuss, chestnuts are also divided into north and south, from south to north, ** chestnuts are the best?

Whether at home or abroad, chestnuts are always a limited taste of autumn. Childhood chestnuts are a circle of oily and yellow sugar-fried chestnuts rolled in the black sand, and when I grow up, chestnuts are exquisite chestnut cakes in the display cabinet of the dessert shop.

Let's take a closer look.

Hebei moved west. The size of Qianxi chestnuts is not large, the shell is mostly dark brown, and most of them are picked up after they are fully ripe and naturally fall fruit, so they have enough sugar and less water, and they taste sweet and glutinous, and their mouths are full of chestnut fragrance. Qianxi chestnuts are most suitable for sugar stir-frying, in addition to the good taste, there is another important reason: the inner membrane between the shell and the kernel is thin and soft, the shell meat is easy to separate, and the skin is not sticky.

It's delicious, it's easy to peel, and the chestnuts in Qianxi deserve to make their debut in the C position!

Huairou, Beijing. The fame of Huairou chestnut is due to the blessing of the super V back then, and it is a chestnut for Cixi. However, it is now difficult to eat authentic Huairou chestnuts, which have delicate flesh and sweet taste, and are loved by crooked nuts. There is also a legend about Huairou chestnuts, it is said that Cixi especially loved to use Huairou chestnuts to make a nest, and over time this has become a famous snack in Beijing.

Jianou cone chestnut. The appearance of the Jian'ou cone chestnut is a bit peculiar, although it also belongs to the chestnut family, it has a pointed head and is conical when viewed from the side. Most of the main production areas of cone chestnut are in Fujian Province, among which Jian'ou is the most famous.

The flesh of the cone chestnut is more delicate and sweet, and the raw chestnut tastes crispy and sweet. The inner membrane of the cone chestnut is not easy to separate from the kernel, so it is rarely used for sugar frying, and the more common practice is to make candied fruit and chestnut paste.

Cone chestnut only grows in the south of the southern slope of the Qinling Mountains and north of Wuling, but it is not produced in Taiwan and Hainan. The main production area is in Jian'ou, Fujian. The growth range of chestnut is square, and it grows in 20 provinces and cities across the country.

The small growth range will naturally reduce the total amount. The cone chestnut has a sweet and delicious taste, although it has its own characteristics compared with the Yanshan chestnut, but this is extremely outstanding compared to the southern vegetable chestnut. These three reasons make Fujian's chestnuts rare and expensive, and they are very high.

Chestnut (chestnut) is one of the most well-known nut foods, especially the fried chestnut flavor is simply lovely, it can be said that you never get tired of eating it. China is the origin of chestnut and there are many well-known production areas, but now most areas of China have large-scale planting of chestnut. So chestnuts are the best specialties of **, and the chestnuts produced are the best?

The Qianxi chestnut in the north is the most delicious, because the Qianxi chestnut not only has high sugar content, but also has a very good taste, and is deeply loved by the public.

I feel that Tangshan's Qianxi chestnuts are the most delicious, because I like to eat chestnuts here, they are very sweet.

The chestnuts in the south are big and crispy, while the chestnuts in the north are small and sweet, so there is no ** best, but it depends on the taste of the person who eats it, and everyone's taste is different.

Zunhua chestnut is the most famous, to Japan called Tianjin chestnut, because it is shipped and exported from Tianjin, the Japanese think that it is Tianjin chestnut.

The chestnuts in Hebei Province are the most delicious, because of the problem of water and soil, most of the chestnuts are big, sweet and soft, so they are delicious.

Zunhua, Qianxi, Xinglong, and Qinglong chestnuts grow in the Yanjing Mountains, and the taste is the same. Whose food is good and whose advertising is good, but there is a place called Huangling in the Yanshan Mountains, where chestnuts are the best, and they didn't flow into the market to buy and sell before, do you understand?

It's just that due to the low production, it is very difficult to buy, which also highlights its preciousness.

The world's chestnuts look at China, China's chestnuts look at Hebei, Hebei's chestnuts look at Tangshan, and Tangshan chestnuts look at moving west. Chestnut is best in hillside production areas, especially in mountainous areas with iron ore.

According to the origin of the east of Hebei Zunhua Funing Longhua as a region, the best quality, followed by Beijing's Miyun and Huairou production areas, the third is the Xingtai production area, again the Tai'an production area of Shandong, then Shaanxi and Liaoning Dandong, and then south of Henan, Hubei, Hunan and Guangxi and other production areas are vegetable chestnuts, not suitable for raw food or sugar fried, ** is also cheaper.
