Using pistachio cream
What can I make with pistachio cream?
Spread it on toast, croissants and crepes, drizzle it over gelato and yogurt, stir it into a pistachio latte, or use it as a filling for cakes, cookies, cannoli and Dubai-style chocolate bars.
Which Dellabuona cream is best for Dubai chocolate?
Pistachio Cream with Kataifi is best because the crunchy kataifi (kunafa) is already mixed in. You can also mix our 30% Pistachio Cream Spread with toasted kataifi yourself.
Can I bake with Dellabuona pistachio cream?
Yes. Pastry chefs and home bakers use it to fill croissants, layer cakes, top cheesecakes and swirl into brownie batter. For fillings that need texture, use the Crunchy version.
How do I use Pistachio Pesto?
Stir it into hot pasta with a splash of pasta water, spread it on bruschetta, use it as a white pizza base, or spoon it over grilled fish and roasted vegetables.
