Larger and naturally sweeter than European varieties, they are locally known as “Pahadi Singara.” Rich in Vitamin C, fiber, and potassium, these chestnuts are a nutritious, high-energy snack. Their mildly sweet flavor and soft texture make them versatile to be enjoyed roasted, boiled, or added to both sweet and savory dishes.
