Sometimes I X them and soak them in salted water for a 5 mins. then pop them in the oven at 400 for 20 mins. Sometimes I X them and stove top cook them - add salted water steam then slow cook till they start to smell yummy!!!

I've never had roasted chestnuts however...

"Why are your cheeks puffy?"
"Because I have crab apples in my cheeks"
"Why do you have crab apples in your cheeks"
"They aren't crab apples, they are chest nuts"
".....why do you have chest nuts in your mouth?"
"Because crab apples are too big."

Chestnuts actually have a better shape for putting in your cheeks while an Italian whore hits you on the head with her shoe.

ETA: I thought chestnuts were just about extinct in America, apparently there was a blight about 100 years ago that killed nearly all the trees.

For all practical purposes, the American Chestnut is gone.

The ones you see growing here and there now are mostly exotics. There is a lot of research that goes on towards the end of reintroducing a blight-resistant strain of American Chestnut. As it is, an AC will grow for a few years, then die.
