A clever chef first developed gelato in 16th century Florence. Gelato is a frozen sweet dessert similar to America ice cream, though with a few differences. Gelato is made fresh, lower in fat, and served warmer, with a smooth semi-soft texture. Typically gelato should be made and consumed within a week at most. Therefore, a professional gelaterie makes small batches of gelato daily, and keeps easily stored, fresh ingredients on hand.
Gelatech Gelato and Pastry Pastes are high-quality, flavorful, and fresh ingredients ideal for professional chefs. Pure Pistachio Gelato and Pastry Paste from Gelatech is made with 70% pistachios. The paste is made from Kerman pistachios, a variety of pistachio known for its hearty growth and consistent flavors.
Originally native to Southern Central Eurasia and the Middle East, pistachios quickly spread to the Mediterranean as well. They also do well grown in California. Pistachios are grown on a flowering nut tree. They are known for their pale cream shells and rich green nut. The green color carries over to the pistachio paste and final products cooked or prepared with pistachios.
Pistachios have a delicate, nutty, earthy, buttery flavor that is delicious alone or as a compliment to vanilla, cherry, almond and other nuts, and chocolate.
This pistachio paste is packaged in a plastic pail convenient for use, storage, and maintaining freshness for up to 24 months.
