Yield Makes 2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 cups shelled salted pistachios (6 1/2 ounces)
1 cup sugar
6 large egg whites
2 cups chilled heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon almond extract

Steps:

  • Pulse 1 cup pistachios with 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar in a food processor until very finely ground. Add remaining 1/2 cup pistachios and pulse until just coarsely ground.
  • Beat egg whites in a bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until they just hold soft peaks. Beat in remaining 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, a little at a time, then increase speed to high and beat until meringue just holds stiff, glossy peaks.
  • Beat cream with almond extract in a wide bowl with mixer at high speed until it just holds soft peaks.
  • Fold meringue into cream gently but thoroughly, then fold in nut mixture in same manner. Spoon into a 2-quart dish and freeze, covered, until firm enough to scoop, about 4 hours. Let soften slightly before serving.

I had a hard time finding pistachio brittle. I ended up using chopped pistachios instead.

This semifreddo was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my semifreddo turned out a little icy. I'm going to try making it again.
