  1. Mix the dry ingredients, minus the powdered sugar, in a large bowl.
  2. Heat the milk and butter in a small saucepan until room temperature. Then add it to the bowl with the dry ingredients, and knead well until you get a smooth dough. Let it rise under a kitchen towel for approx. 1 hour.
  3. Start with the pistachio cream. Grind the nuts in a food processor until fine. Then add butter, icing sugar and lemon juice and process until you get a tough mass.
  4. Preheat the oven to 225º C top and bottom heat.
  5. Roll out the dough into a large square of approx. 40 x 40 cm.
  6. Spread the cream over one half, and then fold the other half over.
  7. CUT the dough into 15 equal-sized pieces. Then twist the pieces before making a knot. you can check the post on Instagram to see a how-to video.
