Method
13 steps- Knead the dough the afternoon before. mix everything except the salt and the butter, then cover and rest for about 40 minutes.
- Then knead in the salt and the butter as well. You get a slightly sticky, softer dough.
- Rest the dough at room temperature for 3–6 hours, and when it has grown by about 20–25%, put it in the fridge overnight.
- If you make it with yeast, use ½ cube of fresh yeast in the dough, without activating it first.
- Rest the dough in the fridge overnight, then shape and bake it the next day.
- The next day, roll it out on a floured surface to about 5–6 mm thick, then cut it into finger-thick strips.
- Wind the dough around cream-horn moulds lightly brushed with butter, leaving a gap of about 2–3 mm between the strips.
- Place them on a tray lined with baking paper and leave to prove fully.
- Before baking, brush thinly with butter, then roll in sugar.
- Bake lying down in an oven preheated to 180 °C, where they turn golden brown in about 15 minutes.
- While still warm, carefully slide them off the moulds and leave to cool.
- For the cream, whip the cream with the mascarpone and the sugar to stiff peaks, then fold in the pistachio paste.
- Fill the cooled pastries; if you like, sprinkle with chopped pistachios and freeze-dried raspberries.
