About Pistachio kunafa
Pistachio Kunafa is a delectable Middle Eastern dessert rooted in Levantine cuisine, renowned for its blend of textures and flavors. This indulgent treat features a base of shredded phyllo dough or semolina, layered with a rich, sweet cheese or custard filling. It's baked to golden perfection and topped with fragrant pistachios, lending a nutty crunch. A drizzle of sugar syrup infused with rose or orange blossom water provides its signature sweetness. In terms of nutrition, Pistachio Kunafa offers some benefits from pistachios, which are packed with healthy fats, protein, and antioxidants. However, the dessert is also high in sugar, saturated fats, and refined carbohydrates, making it a calorie-dense indulgence best enjoyed in moderation. While Kunafa captures the essence of Middle Eastern hospitality and tradition, its richness means mindful portion sizes are key for maintaining balance in a healthy diet.
