| Husband and I had the extreme pleasure of three nights in Venice a couple of years ago. One day when strolling near our B&B he purchased a slice of pistachio cake which I didn't think I'd love (why not, I love pistachios but if it's not chocolate I can be a pain) but it was HEAVEN!
About a year ago I spent some time looking for a recipe and finally made this one: http://www.travelpod.com/travel-photo/micheline6/1/1285180569/the-pist achio-cake.jpg/tpod.html It was very close but not quite right...can't really recall now why I thought that. But it was not like this...this one looks dry: http://www.flickr.com/photos/annapickard/2315442426/ Searching briefly again tonight I see several posts on Venetian pistachio cake and several who have searched in vain so I turn to you, what have you got? Thank you! |

| I spent a week in Venice a few years back....never had a pistachio cake. But I suspect it's not "Venetian" but just a speciality of the baker. Now a bellini or a Venetian style lasagna, that's something different. |
