Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 5 min.

Sieve 200 g icing sugar and 100 g flour into a bowl and mix with a whisk.

Stage 2 - 3 min.

Add 200 g egg white and whisk in.

Stage 3 - 3 min.

Add 100 g Pistachio powder or paste and mix again.

Stage 4 - 3 min.

Pour 200 g Noisette butter into the mixture...

Stage 5 - 10 min.

...and mix thoroughly.

Stage 6 - 1 hour

Pour the mixture into madeleine moulds and leave to rest for 1 hour in the fridge.

Stage 7 - 15 min.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F) and bake the madeleines for 10 to 15 minutes.

Leave to cool on a wire rack.

Remarks

Use pistachio paste rather than powder, if possible, as the smooth texture helps it to mix easily into the madeleine batter.

These proportions are to make a set number of small madeleines. It will make half the quantity of large madeleines: 60 small madeleines = 30 large.

I just made these - they were easy to make (I used the purchased pistachio paste from King Arthur Flour)...but the pistachio flavor was not as pronounced as I would like....next time I might add a couple of drops of either almond or pistachio extract.
