    Fistik Sarma

    I had the best Fistik Sarma during my recent trip to Turkey. It was soft with a strong green pigmentation and a dominant taste of pistachio.

    I wanted to replicate this recipe once I got back home, but was only able to find recipes in Turkish. I had to watch a few videos to get an idea of how to make it.

    For a modest variation, you can use a combination of walnuts and almonds for this recipe.

    Fistik means “pistachio” in Turkish, but it is also used as a compliment for a pretty girl.
