METHOD

• Roast the walnuts in an oven heated to 340°F for 15 minutes.
• In the meantime, blend the almonds almost to butter (the fat will start to release).
• Then, add the rest of the marzipan ingredients and mix until it is smooth.
• Then, knead the dough thoroughly and put it aside.
• To prepare pistachio marzipan, we will need pistachios and almonds.
• Put both in a blender and mix again for 3-5 minutes.
• Then, add the rest of the ingredients for the preparation of pistachio marzipan, mix, knead, and set aside.
• For the chocolate nougat, we will need roasted walnuts, which we will mix with permitted cocoa butter.
• Then add the rest of the nougat ingredients, mix, knead, and set aside.
• Now we can shape.
• We make balls from the pistachio dough.
• Wrap each ball with the nougat dough by making a slightly larger ball, flatten it, and wrap the pistachio ball in it.
• We proceed in the same way with the next layer of marzipan.
• Finally, we dip into the chocolate coating made from cocoa butter and chocolate over a water bath.
