When we do this we soak the chestnuts in soy sauce first, roll them in sugar, then wrap them in bacon. Another twist is to put a sauce of 1 part sugar and 1 part ketchup boiled together then poured over the cooked bacon water chestnuts. I'm excited to try your version. December 14, 1999

I marinate the water chestnut in soysauce then wrap the bacon around and secure with a toothpick and microwave until the bacon is done. Be sure to put paper towels on the plate first and then on top December 20, 1999

I've made these for years with a few additions, marinade the chestnuts in soy, brown sugar, minced ginger. Wrap in bacon secure with toothpicks and bake in a hot oven until the bacon is very crisp. squeeze some fresh lemon juice over all and aliberal grinding of pepper. Yummy! much cheaper than scallops and bacon but equally addictive! February 2, 2003
