For those who love pistachio, delicate flavors and a not too impressive sweetness this is the right cake to prepare! If I have intrigued you at least a little ... Well you just have to follow this recipe explained step by step, discover the little secrets I'm about to reveal yourself and prepare your delicious cheesecake!

1

Let's start from the preparation of the base. Crumble your biscuits in a mixer or hand. I suggest you use digestive cookies for a perfect succeeded. It is in fact very easy to crumble this type of biscuit and its sweetness is perfectly balanced with the cream we are going to prepare.

2

Now dissolve the butter and pour it a little at a time on your crumbled biscuits mixing everything. Help yourself with your hands and try to create a compound that is finally compact.

3

Take your cake pan with a zipper and cover the base with the baking paper while sides preferably with a clay strip (if you don't use it from the baking paper). The use of acetate is preferable because, when it is removed, it will leave perfectly straight the edges of the cheesecake, while the baking paper tends to wet into contact with the cream by then resulting the edges of the cake not perfectly smooth.

4

Pour your butter and cookie mixture into the pan. Distribute it so as to cover the entire base, being careful to obtain a homogeneous height. Flat the dough well on the bottom, perhaps helping you - as I do - with a smother, or if you don't have it with a spoon. Store your base in the refrigerator and go to the cream preparation.

Bathroom in cold water 2 sheets of fish glue. It is important to anticipate this step since the sheets in sheets must be rehydrated in the water and will serve about ten minutes before it can be used.

At this point you have to divide the mixture into 2 parts and place it in 2 separate containers. To one half we will add the white chocolate, to another the pistachio cream.

11

Make the white chocolate now melt. Take it very little on the flame or melt it in a bain-marie. Help yourself with a whisk by continuously turning it until it is perfectly melted.

At this point, squeeze the 2 sheets of fish glue that will now be soaked and dissolved them on the stove with two tablespoons of milk or liquid cream. Mix well with a whisk until the jelly is perfectly dissolved. Leave it then cool before adding it to cream to cheese since you could risk that the clash between hot and cold can create annoying lumps in the cream.

15

Distribute it homogeneously. Once this pass is over, put the cake tray into the freezer and wait until the filling has thickened before pouring over the second layer of cream.

While the first layer is in the freezer to firmen, we pass to the preparation of the second layer of cream. Bathrooms in cold water 2 other sheets of fish glue and wait until the jelly soak. Meanwhile, take the other half of cream to the cheese set aside and add 170-180 grams of pistachio cream (let it from around 20 gr for decoration). On the market there are several ready-made pistachio creams. I always choose creams with bronte pistachio and I don't add other sugars since the creams are already sugary.

After mixing the two creams well with a hand whip, squeezed and melt - as you did first - your jelly and add it to the freshly prepared pistachio cream. When the compound will be homogeneous, velvety and without lumps, remove your cake pan from the freezer and pour it on the first layer of white chocolate cream. Level the surface well and leave your cheesecake in the refrigerator to rest at least for 5 hours.
