Selection and storage Tips:

Chestnuts are cool season crop, begin available in the markets from October through March, peaking in December. In Asia and Europe they are still harvested and processed by traditional methods. 

In the stores, choose big sized, fresh nuts. Since they are rich in starch and fewer fats than most other nuts, they tend to spoil rather quickly if exposed to air and less humid conditions for longer period. To verify freshness, cut open some sample nuts and check for heavy, meaty, creamy white kernel inside since often-times it is difficult to find out damaged nuts by their outer appearance.

Chestnuts should be treated more like vegetables and fruits than nuts whe it comes to their storage. they are suggested to be packed and kept in cold storage in the refrigerator, set with high relative humidity where they remain fresh for few weeks.
