I have a jar of water chestnuts sitting in my fridge.

eat them out of the jar

put em in a soup

going to call no eating them by themselves (I don't really like them raw), but soup is totally a good idea

Throw them away. In fact, when you bring them home from the store, just put the jar in the garbage instead of the refrigerator -- save yourself the decision-making later.

Put them in tuna salad or spinach dip -- they don't add a lot of flavor, but they're a nice texture variation.

never made a spinach dip tbh (although I pretty much always have fresh spinach on hand - my green of choice)

tuna salad is something I make all the time and sounds like a good call

laurel are you some crazy spite-filled water chestnut-hater or

Yes, sadly. There's something about that crunch.

soup and tuna salad GREAT ideas

i mean i would just make stirfry all week but what do i know

rumaki!

take the water chestnuts and sandwich them between pate/chicken liver, wrap them in bacon and then fry them in oil.

Water chestnuts, heavens curtsey and bow

just checked my mom's rumaki recipe: she marinates the chicken livers in ginger/soy/scallions for 1-2 hours but it's relatively simple.

btw I made myself a tuna w/ mayo, mustard, hot sauce, water chestnuts, pickles, ground pepper, & garlic pepper salt on rye w/ fresh spinach and it was tasty as a mf
