Children eat with their eyes. It always amazes me how my son and daughters decide whether something hits the mark or not.
<br />
<br />But it appears that adults do the same. See, my friend M, happened upon a Chestnut recipe in a dodgy British magazine and was skeptical about making it, till she read the credits....in small print 'Courtesy of the BBC Good Food'. Finally, a name she could trust. It turned out delicious.....and gave me some ideas.
<br />
<br />Now, I must warn you....my roulade ended up as a flatade......but was gobbled up by everyone in sight.
<br />A case when looks 'didn't matter'!
<br />
<br />Note, you can flavour the cream to please. A chocolate liqueur or a coffee one, both go well with the sweetness of chestnuts.
