* Original recipe called for 1 ts salt rather than 1 tb soy sauce.

Prepare chestnuts by cutting an X on the flat side with a sharp
knife, then roasting in a 400°F oven for 15 minutes. Shell the nuts
and chop coarsely.

Measure out 1-1/2 cups then put them in a blender or food processor
and grind them to a fine powder or paste. Mix all ingredients in a
bowl, then transfer to a loaf pan, sprinkle with cayenne, and bake at
350°F for 1 hour. Cool completely, unmold, slice thin, and serve with
French bread or lowfat crackers.

"Actually, the cayenne thing was a fortunate mistake--I grabbed it
instead of the paprika!"
