Homemade Pistachio Paste for Desserts

The homemade pistachio paste for desserts can be used in various sweet preparations.

Unfortunately, it is not easy to find it, unless you go to specialty shops for pastry products, and its cost is quite high.

For this reason, every time I need it, I prefer to make it myself starting from either pistachio flour or crumbs, and the result is really good.

It is perfect for making pies, cookies, cakes, creams, spoon desserts, ice creams, and more.

Delicious even as a snack simply spread on a slice of bread.

Welcome to my blog "lericettediminu". I am Carmen D'Angelo, a Sicilian with a great love for cooking. I particularly enjoy making desserts, where I can best express my personal inclination not only for taste but also for beauty. It was my mother, Enza, who passed her passion for cooking on to me, and I try to honor her teachings by always striving to improve and deepen my knowledge. I am not a professional in the field, but having cooked since I was a child and read extensively on the subject, I believe I have gained a certain experience through practice. I am a wife and a mother in love with her family, and I created this blog to virtually welcome anyone who wishes to join me within the walls of my kitchen, which to me is a true treasure trove of flavor and emotions.
