The AS Barga sports group were out in force at the Fosso – the area just outside the main gates of the city, preparing roast chestnuts and necci (article here) for the many visitors to Barga this week. As they are roasting the chestnuts for a large amount of people they have a different system for preparing them rather than using the more slower traditional padella -they instead use large metal cages which are turned slowly over the flames. As the cooking comes to an end they are turned faster and faster to knock out the burnt outer skin and leave just the cooked inner ready to be bagged up and given to the waiting crowds.
