Pistachio paste (pure)
Energy: ~600 kcal / 100 g (typical) (planning figure - the product label is the final reference)
How this figure was derived
- Read from
- ~600 kcal / 100 g (typical)
- Energy density
- 600 kcal / 100 g
- Basis
- Per 100 g — a weight. Applying it to a volume would be wrong.
- Example, at 30 g
- 600 kcal / 100 g × 30 g ÷ 100 = ≈ 180 kcal
A planning figure, not a laboratory analysis. It is here so a recipe can be reasoned about, not so it can be declared on a menu.
Shelf life: Sealed: months, per label. Opened: refrigerate and use within weeks; oil separating on top is normal, off smells are not.
Storage: Cool and dark sealed; refrigerate after opening. Stir the oil layer back in — never pour it off, that is the flavour leaving.
- The premium base for pistachio lattes — loosen it in the hot shot or hot milk first
- Pistachio hot chocolate and milkshakes
- Richer and shorter-label than pistachio sauce — dose smaller
A true 100% paste has no added sugar — protein and mostly unsaturated fat instead — but at ~600 kcal / 100 g it is dosed by recipe grams. Tree-nut allergen: flag clearly.
