Description

Chestnut spread, also known as chestnut jam, goes by various names in French: confiture de

marrons, confiture de chataîgnes, and crème de marrons. Clément Faugier’s recipe for chestnut

spread is exceptional for its inclusion of crushed pieces of candied chestnuts. Because of its thick

and smooth texture, it is excellent on toast. It alsogoes well with yogurt, crème fraîche, or fromage blanc and is ideal with waffles and pancakes.

 

In the late 18th century, a disease hit silkworms in Ardèche, a region in the Rhône-Alpes, where the abundant mulberry trees had nourished the silkworms and made Ardèche a principal supplier of Lyon’s silk industry. It was at this moment of economic crisis that Clément Faugier turned to another of the region’s trees, the chestnut tree, for salvation. In 1882 Faugier created at Privas the first candied chestnut factory. Next came the special recipe for chestnut spread, as a way to use the extra bits and pieces of candied chestnuts. Today Clément Faugier remains a family business and produces a broad range of chestnut products, all of which are produced without additives.
