Today, variations of these cookies can be found across the Middle East and beyond, cherished for their unique flavor and texture.
pistachios
🥗Healthier: almonds
💰Cheaper: sunflower seeds
Almonds provide similar texture and flavor, while sunflower seeds are often less expensive.
sugar
🥗Healthier: coconut sugar
💰Cheaper: brown sugar
Coconut sugar has a lower glycemic index, while brown sugar is typically cheaper.
rose water
🥗Healthier: orange blossom water
💰Cheaper: vanilla extract
Orange blossom water offers a similar floral note, while vanilla extract is widely available.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare a food processor to grind the pistachios.
Combine half salted and half unsalted roasted pistachios in the food processor and pulse until finely ground.
In a mixing bowl, combine ground pistachios, sugar, kosher salt, and orange blossom water.
Whisk the egg white in a separate bowl until frothy and then add to the dry ingredients, mixing well.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto a baking sheet, spacing them apart.
Optionally, place a whole pistachio in the center of each cookie before baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for an unspecified time until done (not specified in the transcript).
Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
