Sugar fried chestnut production method

First, the processing procedure includes: screening, frosting, sand washing, frying the sand, stir-frying in a wok, adding sugar, pan-roasting, sieving, and finally obtaining the finished product. Second, the detailed processing steps begin with selecting high-quality chestnuts that are full, uniform in size, and free from pests. The process starts by pouring 3–5 mm diameter sand or quartz sand into a pot and repeatedly stirring it to smooth the edges. After cleaning and drying the sand, it is placed into a pan and fried. When the temperature reaches 50°C, the chestnuts are added to the pan, maintaining a ratio of 1 part chestnut to 2 parts sand. Using a shovel, the chestnuts are continuously turned to ensure even heating. Once the chestnuts reach 78°C, a small amount of sugar syrup is added. The chestnuts are then stir-fried for a while before more syrup is added. This process is repeated 2–3 times, with an ideal syrup-to-chestnut ratio of 1:60. When the chestnut surface forms a thin, transparent film, and the shell cracks easily when tapped, the chestnuts are ready for pan-roasting. They are then placed in a sieve to separate the fried chestnuts from the sand, which can be reused for the next batch. This traditional method ensures the chestnuts are evenly coated, crispy on the outside, and soft inside, resulting in a delicious and unique texture. The careful selection of materials and precise control of temperature and time are key to achieving the final quality. Each step is essential to maintain the integrity and flavor of the chestnuts throughout the entire process.
