Sátão Egg Chestnuts

Place the 30 eggs in their shells in a bowl of hot water (so that they don't boil) so that you can separate the yolk from the white, as the jam can't contain any whites.

Bring the sugar. In a saucepan, add the eggs to the sugar and bring to the boil over a low heat, stirring constantly until it comes off the bottom. Put the dough to cool.

Sprinkle a table with flour, roll out the dough, cut it into small pieces and shape them into chestnuts and stick them on a stick one at a time.

In a bowl, beat a whole egg and two egg yolks to brush over the chestnuts.

Finally, put them on the hob in a well-lit fire.
