Castagnaccio
Castagnaccio is a plain chestnut flour cake, typically found in the Tuscany, Liguria, Piedmont, Emilia-Romagna and Veneto regions of Italy and in the French island of Corsica. It is a typically autumnal dessert, made by a dough of chestnut, water, olive oil, pine nuts and raisins, and baked. Local variations may include other ingredients, such as rosemary, orange rind, fennel seeds, and other dried fruit. There are also variations on the thickness of the cake, and specific names are sometimes used locally to refer to such variations. For example, in Livorno, a castagnaccio 3 centimeters thick is called "toppone". Castagnaccio is best served with ricotta cheese, chestnut honey or sweet wines such as Vin Santo.
