Origin
Grown and carefully selected in France, where chestnut cultivation has been part of the region's agricultural heritage for centuries. Roger Descours is a renowned French producer specialising in chestnuts, drawing on the traditional expertise of the Ardèche region, an area particularly celebrated for its quality chestnuts.
Why We Stock It
Roger Descours cooked chestnuts are selected for their naturally sweet, delicate flavour and wonderfully tender texture. Carefully peeled and gently cooked, they retain their rich, earthy character while offering the convenience of being ready to use straight from the pack. Vacuum-packed to preserve their natural taste and quality, they make an excellent addition to both everyday cooking and special occasion dishes.
Best Used For
Perfect for enjoying warm or cold, straight from the pack, or gently reheated to bring out their full flavour. They are particularly delicious in traditional stuffing, soups, casseroles, sauces and seasonal vegetable dishes. Their naturally sweet, nutty flavour pairs beautifully with game, poultry, pork, mushrooms, root vegetables and warming spices. They can also be puréed for desserts, cakes, pastries and other sweet treats.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place, away from heat, humidity and direct sunlight. Once opened, transfer any unused chestnuts to a suitable sealed container, refrigerate and consume within 3 days.
Care
Ready cooked and peeled, these chestnuts require very little preparation. Simply remove from the packaging and enjoy as they are, or gently warm in a pan, oven or microwave before serving. Avoid overheating to preserve their naturally tender texture and delicate flavour.
