The ingredients needed to make Kuri An (Sweet Chestnut Paste):

1. Prepare 300 grams Chestnuts
2. Make ready 90 grams Sugar
3. Make ready 60 ml Water
4. Get 1 tsp Mirin
5. Take 1 pinch Salt

Instructions to make Kuri An (Sweet Chestnut Paste):

1. I used regular boiled and peeled chestnuts. The shape doesn't matter, so you can use ones that have been split in half and scooped out with a spoon.
2. I used about 300 g of peeled chestnuts. The amount of sugar to aim for is about 30% of the chestnuts in weight, and the amount of water is about 20%.
3. Combine sugar and water in a saucepan and heat to make syrup. When the sugar has melted, turn the heat down, add the chestnuts, and mix while simmering for a little bit.
4. While there is still moisture left in the pan, add mirin and salt and bring back to a simmer. Turn off the heat.
5. Puree in a food processor or pass through a strainer and it's done.
6. If you are passing it through a strainer, it's easier to do so if you don't simmer the chestnuts for too long in Step 4. (If needed, pass it through a strainer first and then simmer the paste a little more.) A superb chestnut paste is done.
7. To make the Mont Blanc topping: I passed the chestnut paste through a fine meshed sieve again, and added 1 coffee creamer (5 ml) to thin it out. I also added a little vanilla essence.
