sweet chestnut
Roasted autumn treat
Sweet chestnut is a large European tree that produces edible nuts in spiny husks.
The nuts, also called sweet chestnuts, are roasted and eaten, especially around the winter holidays: roasted sweet chestnuts from a street vendor.
The tree's wood is valued for furniture and fencing.
Distinguished from horse chestnuts, which are inedible.
