{"product_id":"sicilian-mediterranean-pistachio-paste-verdoro","title":"Sicilian \u0026 Mediterranean Blend Pistachio Paste – 100% Pure \u0026 Natural by Verdoro","description":"\u003cp\u003eVerdoro Sicilian \u0026amp; Mediterranean Blend Pistachio Paste is a pure pistachio paste created for chefs, gelato makers, bakeries, restaurants, and food professionals who need reliable flavour, smooth texture, and strong value in everyday production. It is made with Sicilian pistachios blended with selected complementary pistachio varieties to create a balanced, versatile paste for pastry and gelato applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pistachio paste offers a more accessible alternative to Verdoro’s 100% Sicilian Pistachio Paste while maintaining a clean, professional ingredient profile. With no additives or preservatives, it allows chefs to build pistachio flavour naturally in gelato, pastry creams, fillings, spreads, sauces, and baked goods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pistachios are lightly toasted, then refined to an ultra-smooth 20-micron consistency for easy incorporation into recipes. The result is a versatile pistachio paste with balanced nut flavour, good aromatic depth, and practical performance across a wide range of sweet and savoury applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy This Blend Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blend is designed to balance flavour, usability, and value. Sicilian pistachios bring aromatic depth and regional character, while the complementary pistachio varieties help provide body, richness, and dependable performance in professional recipes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared with Verdoro’s 100% Sicilian Pistachio Paste, this blend is less focused on single-origin intensity and more focused on versatility. It is an excellent choice for applications where pistachio is important but does not need to be the most premium single-origin expression in the recipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFlavour \u0026amp; Texture\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVerdoro Sicilian \u0026amp; Mediterranean Blend Pistachio Paste has a rounded pistachio aroma with a balanced roasted nut flavour. It is smooth, naturally rich, and easy to blend into dairy, cream, chocolate, custard, butter, and gelato bases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe paste has a natural pistachio hue and a silky 20-micron texture. Its balanced profile makes it suitable for both direct pistachio flavouring and recipes where pistachio is paired with chocolate, citrus, almond, vanilla, coffee, berries, or Mediterranean-inspired savoury ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCulinary Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pistachio paste can be used in gelato, ice cream, semifreddo, pastry cream, mousses, buttercream, ganache, namelaka, cake fillings, tart fillings, croissant fillings, cookies, biscuits, spreads, sauces, and plated desserts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor gelato applications, the suggested usage is approximately 100 g to 120 g of paste per litre of mix, depending on the desired flavour intensity and recipe balance. The paste should be stirred well before use, as natural separation may occur.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Highlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePure pistachio paste\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade with Sicilian pistachios and selected complementary pistachio varieties\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo additives, preservatives, or artificial ingredients\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightly toasted for balanced pistachio flavour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRefined to a smooth 20-micron consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcellent value for professional pastry and gelato production\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuggested gelato usage: 100 g to 120 g per litre of mix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVegan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGluten-free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pistachios.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Verdoro","offers":[{"title":"250g","offer_id":46333632676084,"sku":"VDSMP0250","price":39.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"3kg","offer_id":46333632708852,"sku":"","price":360.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1260\/2953\/files\/VERDOROSicilian_MediterraneanPistachioPaste_Pure_Natural1.jpg?v=1745450807","url":"https:\/\/supplies.gusta.ca\/products\/sicilian-mediterranean-pistachio-paste-verdoro","provider":"Gusta Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
