  1. Finely blitz the pistachios in a food processor. Separate the eggs into 2 different bowls. Add a good pinch of salt to the egg whites and whisk until stiff. In another bowl, beat the egg yolks with the sugar and the Pistachio Spread. In a third bowl, whip the cream until stiffened slightly.
  2. Stir the pistachios into the egg yolk mixture. Add half the whipped cream to the pistachio mixture and fold to mix thoroughly. Now add the remaining whipped cream.
