They are regularly cleared of leaves and shrubs. They are also usually found in easily accessible, almost flat areas.<br \/>\nThe presence of chestnut trees since ancient times has meant that some specimens, still existing today, have a particular historical, cultural and landscape value and, as such, are defined as monumental trees.<br \/>\nIn particular, this jam uses marroni, a prized variety of chestnuts, distinguished by their larger size, more regular shape and lighter, smoother skin than common chestnuts. They are particularly appreciated for their sweet flavour and soft texture. The harvesting of marroni in Piedmont is a traditional autumn activity that takes place between the end of September and November, depending on weather conditions. The hills and mountains of Piedmont, particularly in the Cuneo area, offer an ideal environment for the growth of high-quality chestnut trees.<br \/>\nDuring harvesting, chestnuts are picked manually from the ground, often with the help of rakes to facilitate the recovery of fallen fruit. This practice ensures that the chestnuts are carefully selected, guaranteeing their integrity and quality. Local families and communities often participate together in this activity, which also represents a moment of social gathering.<br \/>\nOnce harvested, the chestnuts undergo careful selection and cleaning before being sent on to the various stages of processing.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our roasted chestnuts in syrup are a unique delicacy, made with selected chestnuts, carefully roasted according to tradition and then immersed in a simple and delicate syrup of water and cane sugar.<br \/>\nThe result is a genuine and surprisingly versatile product: soft, fragrant and naturally sweet, perfect to enjoy straight from the jar or as a refined addition to numerous dishes.<br \/>\nExcellent with spoon desserts, ice cream and cakes, they also go beautifully with mature cheeseboard and cured meats, or as an autumnal touch in a gourmet salad.<br \/>\nAn artisanal, authentic and 100% natural product that reflects the flavours of our land and the passion with which it is made.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7963,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[67],"product_tag":[688],"class_list":{"0":"post-10682","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-frutta-sciroppata","7":"product_tag-castagne","9":"first","10":"instock","11":"shipping-taxable","12":"purchasable","13":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/10682","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7963"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10682"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=10682"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=10682"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=10682"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
