The ingredients for Pistachio Semifreddo are:

1 1/2 cups shelled salted pistachios (6 1/2 ounces)
1 cup sugar
6 large egg whites
2 cups chilled heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon almond extract

Here is how you make Pistachio Semifreddo:

Pulse 1 cup pistachios with 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar in a food processor until very finely ground. Add remaining 1/2 cup pistachios and pulse until just coarsely ground. Beat egg whites in a bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until they just hold soft peaks. Beat in remaining 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, a little at a time, then increase speed to high and beat until meringue just holds stiff, glossy peaks. Beat cream with almond extract in a wide bowl with mixer at high speed until it just holds soft peaks. Fold meringue into cream gently but thoroughly, then fold in nut mixture in same manner. Spoon into a 2-quart dish and freeze, covered, until firm enough to scoop, about 4 hours. Let soften slightly before serving. Cooks' note: ? The egg whites in this recipe are not cooked, which may be of concern if salmonella is a problem in your area. Number of Servings: 16Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user JLMCINTOSH.
