Pistachio Kataifi Paste

This the filling of the famous "Dubai" bar, the pistachio kataifi crunch but taken to the next level.  It is made from raw pistachios that are ground to a fine paste using a melanger for many hours.  It also has toasted sesame seeds that are ground as well, effectively making a tahini from scratch.  The crunch comes from the kataifi dough which is toasted with clarified butter (ghee).

But then there's more.  I added hand chopped and full pistachios for extra delicate crunch along with additional whole toasted sesame seeds.  The result is a smooth paste that is perfect as a dessert topping, dipped in chocolate (of course), or simply eaten from a spoon.  It's rich, aromatic and incredibly flavorful.  Just one spoonful is an amazing snack.
