About Chestnut
Caps are covered in shaggy scales and appear oily when wet. Has a rich, nutty and sweet flavor that works with a variety of cooking methods, such as in stews, savory pastries, roasted, or even pickled. Prefers 60–70°F and greater than 85% humidity. Can be slower to fruit than other species.
Looks similar to the basic cremini mushroom but packs way more punch. Several bio active compounds have been extracted from this mushroom including the antioxidant methyl gallate and a host of interesting polysaccharides.
