Chestnut Fields
por pessoa
Chestnuts are a fruit of excellence in Portugal, particularly in the Trás-os-Montes region. Serra da Padrela is the icon of this PDO chestnut, which is the origin of the regional certification, and it is between this parish and Carrazedo de Montenegro that we have the largest patch of Judia chestnut trees in Europe. Here the predominant variety, known as the “Queen of Chestnuts”, is the Judia. This variety is highly sought after for culinary use and for making the famous and much-loved “Marron Glacé”.
