This week, instead of having nattou on rice for breakfast I tried chestnuts and rice. I just placed the chestnuts, rice and water in my rice maker and I woke up to some amazing smelling chestnut rice in the morning. The slightly sweet chestnuts and rice were a nice change from my usual breakfast.

Mmmm. I love roasted chestnuts so I am loving all your dishes with chestnuts lately!
What a comforting meal for all times!
My mother used to have chestnuts for breakfast when she was a child. She would use leftover roasted chestnuts from the prior evening. I am not surprised you loved them.
I think this is a wonderful recipe. I just have a question about the chestnuts, can you use canned chestnuts? I'm nut sure if I can get them "fresh" at my supermarket (I live in Denmark)
Sophie: I have not tried used canned chestnuts before but I should think that they would work. I am going to have to look for some in case a recipe calls for chestnuts when they are not in season, like now.
Do call this a recipe?
