Chopped pistachios for decoration
Description
Chopped pistachios for decoration are small, green-brown pieces with a pleasant, slightly sweet-nutty flavor, a delicate creamy note, and subtle earthiness. Their vibrant color and crunchy texture add visual contrast and a delightful "crunch" to both desserts and savory dishes, enhancing the appearance and aroma of the dish. Pistachios are rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, protein, fiber, vitamin B6, vitamin E, and minerals such as magnesium and potassium, as well as antioxidants that support heart health and metabolism. Due to their caloric content, it's best to use them sparingly as a decoration on ice creams, cakes, salads, bread, or yogurts. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place; for longer shelf life, keep in the refrigerator or freezer, away from strong odors.
