[Sca-cooks] Southern California Chestnut resource?

[Huette von Ahrens]

Maggie,

You can buy chestnut paste in jars in the gourmet
section of the supermarket, or from Trader Joes, or
from Whole Foods markets or from Bristol Farms
markets. It is not cheap, but it is available. I don't
think you will find whole chestnuts this time of the
year.

I have a jar that I can give you if you are willing to
come to Angels to pick it up.
