Pistachio is the edible seed of the pistachio tree, supplied as a nut ingredient in the Nut & Seed category. In food and beverage production it contributes a distinct green colour, a mild resinous flavour and a firm, crunchy texture, and its natural oil content helps carry fat-soluble flavours through a mix. Ground or pasted, it thickens and binds while adding body to fillings and sauces.
Manufacturers use pistachio in bakery, confectionery, dairy and savoury applications, including ice cream, nougat, biscuit and snack fillings. It is available whole, chopped, sliced, ground or as a paste, and its solubility is limited, so it disperses rather than dissolves in liquids. Store cool and dry away from strong odours, since the kernels absorb moisture and pick up surrounding aromas. Check particle size and oil separation in pastes before use.
