Tart of tomatoes and pistacchio paste

Tart of tomatoes and pistacchio paste

Since I received this pistacchio paste I mentioned last time, I have been exploring possibilities to use it .... sure desserts or bread or green pasta .... but no, what about using it a bit differently. Yes, for example replacing basil in some instances.

This is actually how I came to this simple recipe last night. I took something I did (and posted) sometime ago and changed to accommodate a change in ingredient. The result is a tart with a delicate and special taste worth of being served in a restaurant as starter. Simply stunning.

Molto invitante questa tarte! Adoro i pistacchi. Quest'anno a Roma ho trovato finalmente la pasta di pistacchio che si usa in pasticceria. Ma non credo che vada bene per una preparazione salata.
Bellissima la luce della foto.
A presto, Alex

Potrebbe andare bene .... quella ch usa va bene anche in pasticceria, ma e' pura (=e' fatta di soli pistacchi passati al mortaio).

I think it would be delicious also with walnut-paste! ;-)
