Marrons Glacés are a luxurious confection hailing from Andorra, often enjoyed during the holiday season and special occasions. This delicacy involves candying chestnuts to create a sweet, glossy treat. Chestnuts are first scored and boiled to remove their skins, then simmered in a sugar syrup until they're permeated with sweetness. After several days of soaking and gentle reheating, allowing the syrup to thicken and the flavor to develop, the chestnuts are dried and glazed, resulting in a shiny finish. Marrons Glacés can be enjoyed on their own or used to enhance pastries and desserts.
