EXCELLENT! bought raw shelled pistaches, and simply dry roasted in the oven. Chunky and tasty.
Pesto di Pistacchio (Pistachio Pesto)
The rich flavor of pistachio is balanced with lemon zest in this bright-tasting sauce. Pistachio pesto is rather sweet, making it great with roasted vegetables.This recipe first appeared in SAVEUR Issue #140 along with Laura Schenone's story Glorious Pesto.
