Water chestnuts are often rotated with rice in paddy fields. Whether thinly sliced in soups, minced as an egg roll ingredient, or sautéed in a stir fry with snow peas, coconut oil, and ginger, water chestnuts remain crispy even after cooking. They’re the main ingredient in a noted Thai dessert, and in the West they’re sometimes wrapped with bacon strips as an hors d’oeuvre.

In Indonesia they’re blended into a drink.
