Caramelized Chestnuts with Lemon Foam

Recipe for Caramelized Chestnuts with Lemon Foam:

Ingredients:
For the Caramelized Chestnuts:
1 cup (150g) roasted chestnuts (canned or freshly roasted)
1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
2 tbsp butter
1/4 cup (60ml) water
Pinch of salt
Optional: A splash of rum or vanilla extract for extra flavor
For the Lemon Foam:
1/2 cup (120ml) fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup (60ml) heavy cream
2 tbsp powdered sugar
1/2 tsp lemon zest (optional, for extra flavor)
1 tsp gelatin powder (optional, for firmer foam)
1 egg white (optional, for a lighter foam)
Instructions:
Caramelized Chestnuts:
Prepare the chestnuts:
If you’re using fresh chestnuts, roast them first by making a small cut on each chestnut, roasting them at 400°F (200°C) for 25-30 minutes, and peeling them. If using canned chestnuts, drain and dry them.

Caramelize the chestnuts:
In a pan over medium heat, melt the sugar with water and a pinch of salt until the sugar dissolves and starts to turn golden brown. Stir in the butter until combined.

Add the chestnuts:
Add the roasted chestnuts to the caramel and stir gently to coat them. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, making sure they are fully coated in the caramel. If desired, add a splash of rum or vanilla extract for extra depth of flavor.

Set aside:
Remove from heat and let the caramelized chestnuts cool slightly before serving.

Lemon Foam:
Prepare the foam:
In a bowl, whisk the lemon juice, powdered sugar, and lemon zest until well combined.

Add cream:
Slowly whisk in the heavy cream. If using gelatin, dissolve the gelatin in a small amount of warm water and add it to the mixture for a firmer foam.

Whip the foam:
If using egg white, beat the egg white until stiff peaks form and fold it gently into the lemon mixture to create a lighter, airier foam. If not, simply whip the lemon mixture until it becomes slightly fluffy.

Chill the foam:
Place the lemon foam in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to set.

To Serve:
Serve the warm caramelized chestnuts with a dollop of the chilled lemon foam on top or alongside.
Garnish with lemon zest or mint for an extra touch of freshness.
This dessert combines the rich, nutty sweetness of chestnuts with the tangy, airy lemon foam, making it an elegant and refreshing treat!
