W hether you prefer a pure, unsweetened pistachio paste or something a little more indulgent, I’ve got you covered with two of my favorite recipes. Pure 100% Pistachio Paste is exactly that—just pure pistachios with nothing added. It’s vibrant, green, and packed with intense pistachio flavor, perfect for those who want the true essence of pistachios. This paste is incredibly versatile and can be used in a variety of recipes, where you want the pistachio flavor to really shine without any added sweetness.
On the other hand, if you’re in the mood for something sweeter, my Sweetened Pistachio Paste is a delicious option. This version combines pistachios with powdered sugar, vanilla bean paste, a pinch of sea salt and cream, creating a rich, sweet, and creamy paste that’s perfect for filling sweet rolls, spreading on pastries, or even using in a decadent pistachio ganache. It’s full of flavor and sweetness, making it a treat on its own or as an ingredient in your favorite desserts.
No matter which version you choose, Both are easy to make and packed with the incredible flavor of pistachios, so you can’t go wrong with either one.
