This edible dark brown tuber has crunchy cream coloured flesh that is rather bland but has a slight sweetness. Choose water chestnuts with a firm texture. Water chestnuts can be eaten raw or cooked. Peel off the skin before using. If the fresh variety is unavailable, substiture with canned water chestnuts. The canned version is ready peeled. Water chestnuts are commonly used in Asian cooking to add a pleasant crunch to stir-fried dishes, snacks and desserts. Store in the refrigerator for up to a week. |
