1.Cut a slit into the chestnut so that they dont explode when roasting. Lay them out on a baking tray and roast in a hot oven for 15 mins.
At the same time cut the bread into pieces and lay on a baking tray. After 7-8 minutes turn the bread so the pieces will brown on both sides
2. Take out and leave to cool and then peel the chestnut shells
2. Then fry the onions, the celery, the sage, the thyme, the rosemary, and the savory in the butter over low heat, stirring, until the vegetables are softened, add the chestnuts, and cook the mixture, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in the toasted bread and season well with and salt and pepper and then set aside to cool.
Makes enough to stuff a 12- to 14-pound turkey.
