Oh, you’ve been a good friend and roasted a big batch. Smart move. Now how long do they last? Cooked chestnuts (peeled and soft) will keep in the fridge for about three to five days. That’s it, folks. Don’t push it to a week unless you enjoy the smell of betrayal.
Pro tip: Seal them tight. Chestnuts are like gossip—they absorb odors around them. Pop them in an airtight container, or your chestnuts will taste like last night’s garlic chicken. Not a vibe.
Chestnuts give you longer-lasting energy than coffee without the crash
Can you freeze them? Absolutely. Freezing is the turbo button. Cooked, peeled chestnuts can last six months to a year in the freezer. Just toss them in a freezer bag, squeeze out the air, and label the bag. You think you’ll remember what month it is? Write it down. Future you will high-five present you.
