Step by Step guide
Step 1
Make a crosswise incision on the blunt side of each chestnut. Arrange the chestnuts on a baking tray and place it in an oven preheated to 392°F for twenty minutes. Remove and peel off the skin.
Step 2
Place one whole onion, a clove of garlic, a piece of pork fat, and a pork ear (or another cut of pork, such as a shoulder or ribs) into a pot. Fill with water, bring to a boil, and simmer for about an hour. Then add the chestnuts and cook for another hour.
Step 3
Finely chop the remaining onion and sauté it in vegetable oil until translucent. Add a splash of vinegar and stir. Incorporate the onion into the broth.
Step 4
Pour the broth into a bowl that is half-filled with thinly sliced pieces of bread, and serve. The remaining pork with boiled chestnuts can be enjoyed as a second course.
