The Superstone Chestnut Roaster set by Sassafras is no longer available. But we still need a way to roast chestnuts don’t we. So I checked out what else was available and found the Paderno Black Carbon Steel Chestnut Pan.

Carbon Steel is an excellent conductor of heat so it is safe to use at high temperatures.  So now you can safely roast chestnuts inside on the stove top but there is nothing to stop you heading outdoors and using your chestnut pan on the firepit or chiminea, in fact there is a long handled version of the Paderno Black Carbon Steel Chestnut Pan with Oversized Handle available which would be well suited to outdoor cooking.

Now we all know that opening Chestnuts is not easy so here is a hand knife to help with the task.  The LamsonSharp Pro Chestnut Knife is ideally suited for this task. This knife is made from stamped, hardened and tempered high-carbon stainless steel. It has a one piece, half tang construction and Walnut handles. The Chestnut CookbookThe Lamson Sharp Pro Chestnut knife has a lifetime warranty  – plus – Sharp for Life, and it is made right here in the USA.

And last but not least, how about a copy of  The Chestnut Cook Book: Recipes, Folklore and Practical Information which is full of interesting information including basic storage, processing and nutritional information and ideal for those who are interested in preparing chestnuts. This cookbook includes meals from many cultures including China and North America.

So with these three items you are well and truly set for the Chestnut season.


The item below is no longer in stock.

I love the look and feel of natural stoneware so I really like this Superstone Chestnut Roaster Set by Sassafras which is made of natural stoneware fired at temperatures of over 2000 degrees.

superstone-chestnut-roaster-setBecause Superstone baking pieces produce an even distribution of heat you will find that you will have perfectly roasted chestnuts in no time.

Then you can set about eating these tasty treats or why not add them to the stuffing for your turkey to impart a delicious flavor.

You will also be treated to the delicious aroma of roasting chestnuts wafting through your home.

The chestnut roaster can be safely used in the oven, the microwave and even in convection ovens.

There is a recipe for chestnut soup on the outside of the box that the roaster comes in, as well as a recipes booklet for using chestnuts, which is included in the box.
