How do roasted Maroni typically serve a dual purpose at the market in cold weather?
They are served hot in a paper bag acting as a hand warmer and a snack
Maroni, which are chestnuts roasted over an open fire, are a classic sweet treat particularly sought after when outdoor temperatures drop significantly. Their appeal lies in two primary aspects: their taste and their practical use in the cold. Once roasted until soft and slightly smoky inside, they are traditionally served immediately in a simple paper bag. This method of serving not only contains the snack for easy eating while walking but also allows the warmth emanating from the freshly roasted chestnuts to function as a temporary, edible hand warmer, making them highly functional in the crisp German winter air.
