This very simple Chestnut paste is extremely versatile, typically used stand-alone either on toast for breakfast or thrown in some oats for tasty muesli. Also used as an ingredient in French patisserie for those nutty notes you've been striving to achieve. Will keep chilled in the fridge for 2 months. Here we served it simply spread on some delicious sourdough toast.
