Water chestnuts are one of those ingredients that creates a spark of excitement. When you first taste a fresh one, you say to yourself, "wow, I have been missing out." The explanation for this discovery has to do with most people only knowing canned water chestnuts. Chestnuts out of a can taste like...a can!
Fresh ones taste like a combination of jicama, Asian pears and orchard apples.
Take a field-trip, find an Asian market and look for these beauties!
Yep, Not a Nut at All!
