Roasted chestnuts (lazy version)

Overview

When I read the novel "Lu Xiaofeng" before, I longed for Grandma Xiong's sweet and hot sugar-roasted chestnuts in the novel. At that time, we didn’t sell sugar-roasted chestnuts here. Every time my husband went on a business trip, he would bring back a bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts, no matter how busy he was. I was very happy every time he took out the wrinkled bag of chestnuts from his backpack. Although I couldn't eat the steaming chestnuts, I still felt quite sweet in my heart. Nowadays, you can buy hot sugar-roasted chestnuts on the streets no matter what season it is, but it seems that they don’t have the sweetness and deliciousness that they tasted back then. The beauty of food does not lie in its original taste. I think the key point is the heart of a person that we can feel through this food. I like to make all kinds of delicious food for my family. It may not be as delicious as outside, maybe not as exquisite as outside, maybe not as authentic as outside, but it is full of deep love. I think that should be the best food in the world!
