Pistachio Paste

Pistachio Mousse

    Step 1

    Whip aquafaba until thick. Make a sugar syrup with the water sugar and agar until it reaches 116˚C and use this to make an Italian meringue out of the aquafaba. Once cold, semi-whip the cream and fold into the meringue with the pistachio paste.

Pistachio Brittle
