Pistachio Praline Paste

shelled pistachios sugar salt (or fleur de sel)

INGREDIENTS

Spread the pistachios on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake until fragrant.

1

Pour the sugar into a pot, spreading it evenly so you get one thin layer. Place over medium-high heat.

2

As soon as the sugar starts to melt, lower the heat to medium-low.

3

When the caramel turns amber and all the sugar has melted, remove from the heat.

4

Drizzle over the roasted pistachios. Cool down at room temperature.

5

Break the caramel into pieces and place with the pistachios and salt in the food processor bowl.

6

Process, occasionally scraping the bowl, until the praline paste becomes slightly runny and shiny.
