Braised cabbage with chestnuts

Overview

September is the season for eating chestnuts. These chestnuts have been stored in the refrigerator uneaten since I bought them, so the color of the cooked chestnuts is a bit ugly, but the taste has not changed. Chestnuts are rich in nutrients. They not only contain a large amount of starch, but also are rich in protein, fat, B vitamins and other nutrients. They are also high in calories. Chestnuts are rich in vitamin B1 and B2. The content of vitamin B2 is at least 4 times that of rice. Each 100 grams also contains 24 mg of vitamin C, which is unmatched by grains. Chestnuts can replenish qi, strengthen the spleen, and nourish the gastrointestinal tract. They can provide the body with more heat energy and help fat metabolism. Ensure the supply of basic nutrients to the body. Although chestnuts have high nutritional and health value, they also need to be eaten properly. It's best to eat chestnuts as a snack between meals or as part of a meal, rather than eating them in large quantities after meals.
