Chestnuts?

Post #1 - November 1st, 2017, 11:55 amEvery year for Thanksgiving I obtain steamed whole chestnuts from Williams-Sonoma (for use in the dressing/stuffing).
This year, it looks like WS will not have them until after Thanksgiving.
The quality of these things has been consistently high over the past 18 years or so, so that's always been my source.
I'm probably going to check out Whole Foods (when in doubt, go to the local grocery store) looking for alternatives. However, does anybody have any other ideas for top quality chestnuts?

Most Asian groceries carry pre-packaged steamed chestnuts. For stuffing use, these are probably just what you're looking for.Steve Z.

Yes, I saw them at H-mart the other day, they almost always have them.

I have found these at Costco just before Thanksgiving.
They go fast and are not usually available into December.
