Use unsalted pistachios if possible. This gives the filling a cleaner nut flavor and better balance between sweet and salty.
Did you know?
Pistachio buns get a more aromatic and luxurious flavor than classic buns because the nut filling adds richness, color and texture. Vanilla custard and cream make the filling softer and more dessert like. Proper proofing gives airy buns with a soft crumb.
