In my previous post<\/a>, I wrote how to make a pistachio paste<\/strong> and it was not a random post: with that recipe, now you can make a pistachio whipped ganache!<\/strong><\/p>\n

A ganache<\/strong> is a mixture of cream and chocolate<\/strong>. It can either be used as is or chilled and then whipped<\/strong>, like this one.<\/p>\n

This recipe by Christophe Michalak<\/strong> is perfect to add a creamy texture to tarts<\/strong> and cakes, but it can also be used as filling for macarons or puffs<\/strong>\/\u00e9clairs.<\/p>\n

\"Pistachio<\/a><\/p>\n

It is simply made of pistachio paste, heavy cream and white chocolate. This recipe is super easy to make<\/strong> and looks great when piped (I piped it over my strawberry and pistachio tart<\/strong>: recipe coming soon!)<\/p>\n

Warning: white chocolate from an average supermarket can be quite bad<\/strong>. My “Nestl\u00e9 dessert<\/strong>” white chocolate was excessively sweet<\/strong> and with a strong vanilla flavour: if you can’t get a great chocolate such as Valrhona, you can try adding a bit more pistachio paste to the mixture in order to preserve the pistachio flavour.<\/em><\/p>\n
