Nutty Pistachio Nougat Delight

The East is a delicate matter, but the sweets are delicious. I propose to prepare another popular oriental sweet – nougat with nuts. In this recipe I used pistachios. If you do not overcook them, the nuts will remain green in color. This pairs beautifully with the white sugar base.
