CHESTNUT HONEY

7,00€ – 13,00€

We produce our natural Italian chestnut honey in the Pradeboni woods, on Mount Besimauda in Valle Pesio (CN).

An artisanal product that tends to remain less dense, due to the natural presence of fructose. Both the scent and the color are very intense, complex, with some predominant notes and others barely perceptible.

On the palate it is characterized by a little sweetness and a bitter and persistent aftertaste. This particular nuance makes chestnut honey the most suitable for combinations in the kitchen. Surely you have already heard of chestnut honey and cheese: in fact it is perfect both with medium-aged cheeses, such as pecorino, and with long-aged ones, such as pit cheeses.

It is available in two different formats:

Price Jar of 500g: 7 euro

Price  Jar of  1 kg: 13 euro

Description

Chestnut honey | Scoiattolo Rosso beekeeping

Natural Italian chestnut honey that we produce in the month of June in the mountains of the Pesio Valley: the our apiaries are in the Pradeboni woods on Mount Besimauda (CN).

The chestnut plant, called Castanea sativa, belongs to the same family as beech and oak. It is a very long-lived tree: it can become secular or millenary.

The characteristics of chestnut honey

Chestnut honey tends to remain liquid, due to the strong fructose component. Any crystallization is very slow and not always regular. The color is dark amber, with reddish-greenish hues in the liquid honey; if crystallized, on the other hand, it takes on a brown colour. Both the smell and the aroma are intense: it is a slightly sweet honey, with a very persistent bitter aftertaste.

Combinations in the kitchen

Due to its unique organoleptic characteristics, chestnut honey is perfect for accompanying dishes with an intense flavour. You may have already heard of chestnut honey and cheese. In fact, it is particularly appreciated on some pecorino cheeses and, for the more gourmet palates, on some pit cheeses.

Recipes to try

Are you looking for original chestnut honey recipes to impress your guests? A typical example is the chestnut cake (or any other dessert made with the flour of the starchy fruit). The sweet potato gnocchi with gorgonzola, walnuts and chestnut honey are also excellent. Or try the ricotta and chestnut pie with pecorino fondue, balsamic vinegar reduction and chestnut honey
