1: Choosing the right shape is key! Small chestnuts are usually tastier than larger chestnuts, so you can give preference to small chestnuts when picking!

2: It's important to choose the right color! When buying chestnuts, keep in mind that try to choose one with light color, more fluff, and less shiny shell, which is new to the year. Those with dark color, less fluff, and shiny look are all old and old, and it is not recommended for everyone to buy!

3: Look at the shape of the chestnut! I don't know if you have noticed that the chestnuts on the market are generally round on one side and flat on the other, and there is one that is flat on both sides, which is caused by its growth factors!

Size is not an absolute measure, the key depends on the origin

There is a kind of Japanese chestnut, which is very large and very pleasant, and whoever buys it feels that it is taking advantage. This kind of chestnut has a large moisture, less sweetness, high yield, and the taste is not as good as the domestic varieties of noodles and sweetness. In China, it is called cabbage chestnut and is generally grown for export.

Those who like sweets should not buy it, and those who don't like sweets are suitable to buy. The second is the common medium-sized common variety, which has some differences in taste depending on the place of origin, but it is not very large. The third type is not very common, it is very small, so small that anyone who buys it feels a loss, but this is generally mountain chestnut, a real green food, with a sweet taste.

The particularly large size you said is likely to be Shandong chestnut, and the taste is worse than that of Jingdong chestnut. Ask the vendor where the chestnut is made or taste it.

It's okay if it doesn't change the taste, it's best not to buy too much at a time, it's not easy to preserve, and it's easy to castrate. I don't know how long that thing has been sold

Chestnuts are not based on size, and the best may be available in between sizes. The color of the chestnuts is better than a little darker, personal opinion!!
