The Internet celebrity store rose by two dollars a poundThe golden-flavored chestnuts located in the big incense burner in Nanjing's Qinhuai District should be the most "net celebrity" chestnut shop in Nanjing. Even many years ago, when self-media and social platforms were not so rich, it attracted much attention because of the "store rules" with self-contained topic traffic such as seasonal restrictions, cash-only collection, and purchase restrictions, making many people willing to queue up to buy.
Although this year it has risen from 24.8 yuan / jin to 26.8 yuan / jin, and the purchase limit of 50 yuan per person has become 100 yuan, there are still many people lining up to buy. "A price increase of two yuan, that is, a few chestnuts per bag." A citizen queuing at the scene said that last year each pack of chestnuts was one pound, and this year each pack of chestnuts is less than one pound, the change is not obvious, and everyone does not care much. When asked why he was willing to queue up to buy, the citizen said that the quality of golden-flavored chestnuts has always been relatively good, rarely eat bad chestnuts, the key is that he lives nearby, and there is nothing to do when he retires, he will eat if he wants to eat, and if he lives far away, he will definitely not come.

"The price increase is because the purchase price has increased"There are many people lining up to buy golden-flavored chestnuts, and of course there are many controversies. In front of the golden chestnut shop, there are often "scalpers" who set up stalls on the street to sell the same golden chestnuts, the store only accepts cash and 25 yuan a pack, and the stall can scan the code to pay, 30 yuan a pack. The reporter observed the scene for a while, everyone was lining up to pay cash to buy, and no one raised the price to buy chestnuts for "scalpers".
In fact, the long queues of golden-flavored chestnuts are just a microcosm of the popularity of autumn and winter chestnuts. When the weather is good, old fried shops such as Fuyin Chestnut and Hongxiang Chestnut can often see queues. It is reported that this year's fried chestnuts in Nanjing are generally more than 20 yuan per catty, of which Qianxi chestnuts are slightly more expensive than Yunnan chestnuts. The owner of a chestnut shop said that Qianxi chestnuts are generally sweeter than Yunnan chestnuts, and the price increase is because the purchase price of chestnut production areas has risen this year.

If you think that the chestnuts in the fried goods store are too expensive, you may wish to try to buy raw chestnuts in the vegetable market and make them yourself. At present, the price of raw chestnuts in shell in Nanjing vegetable markets ranges from 6 yuan to 15 yuan per catty. During the National Day holiday, citizen Ms. Hu bought a large bag of raw chestnuts and made an oil-free and sugar-free version of roasted chestnuts with an air fryer according to the online tutorial.
"It's as soft and sweet as the fried goods shop, but it costs only one-third." Ms. Hu shared the recipe she learned: wash the chestnuts, boil them for about six or seven minutes, drain the water, use a special opener to open a cross-shaped hole in the shell, put it in an air fryer to adjust to 150°C, and bake it for 15 to 20 minutes (according to the size of the chestnut).
It is necessary to remind everyone that chestnut is a food with a super high carbohydrate content, and people who need sugar control should still eat less. If you are really gluttonous, you can also choose to replace it in the same amount, such as eating a few chestnuts in the afternoon, the carbohydrate intake is enough, then you can consider eating less or not eating rice at night.
