In this short class, you will make a silky smooth pistachio couverture that brings out the bright color and subtle notes of this beautiful Middle Eastern fruit. With only 5 ingredients.

The class book also includes a simple 70% pistachio praliné recipe that works as the foundation of these eye-catching chocolate bars decorated with freeze-dried fruit and dragée halves. But you can use it to add a touch of color and luxurious texture to all your confections and pastries.
