Panzanella is the name of a rustic Tuscan summer dish. It does not require cooking and was originally consumed by the farmers who stayed in the fields all day. As for many dishes from the cucina povera, this uses up leftovers, in particular stale bread.

Fresh chestnuts and fresh chestnut flour are seasonal products and not a year long offering so take advantage of this narrow time window to enjoy them!
Chestnut is not a typical nut nutrition wise because very low on calories and fats. The flour is rich of fiber and gluten free so the cakes made entirely with it will not rise.
