In FROTZ® when autumn arrives we collect the best Galician and Bierzo valley chestnuts.
They are usually smaller in size, more difficult to peel, but are much sweeter than those of other origins.
We calibrate and peel them over an open fire to remove all the skin, then freeze them with nitrogen to maintain all their texture, flavor and color.
