Excellent decoration or side dish of beautifully green pistachios…
1.
Blanch the pistachios briefly in boiling water. Remove from the water and discard the thin brown skin.
2.
Preheat the oven to 170°C, place the pistachios on a baking tray and put them in the oven for 5-7 minutes.
3.
In the meantime, put the water and icing sugar in a small saucepan and heat on a plate. When the syrup reaches 120°C, add the pistachios and stir with a wooden spoon. Remove the pistachios from the pot and place on a separate plate to cool down.
4.
Once cooled, place in a pestle and mortar and grind to a powder. This way we have a tasty powder for decorating.
5.
To make the paste, add the egg white and mix in the chopper until you get a smooth paste.
6.
Storage: Cover the paste with cling film and put it in the refrigerator and just put the powder in a box or bottle and seal it hermetically.
