Chestnut Rice
- 500 grams Raw chestnuts
- 2 tbsp Sake
- 1 tbsp Mirin
- 1/2 tsp Soy sauce
- 1 tsp Salt
- 480 ml Rice
- 540 ml Water
- 1 Sesame seeds
- Put the chestnuts in a bowl and pour in enough hot water to cover.
- Soaking in water makes it easier to peel, so leave them like this for a while until they cool down.
- When the shell has softened, cut away the bottom part.
- You can peel away the shell as is, but if it's too tough, use a knife to peel off the outer shell as shown in the photo.
- Put the knife into a gap and tear the shell off.
- It should look like this.
- Remove the inner skin and soak in water to remove scum.
- Put the rice, seasonings, water and chestnuts into the rice cooker in that order.
- Cook it on the mixed rice setting.
- Done!
