Cooks' Note

To make chopped toasted pistachios, blanch the shelled nuts in vigorously boiling unsalted water until they turn bright green and the skins are loosened, about 20 seconds. Drain the nuts and immediately run them under cold water. Slip off the skins and drain them briefly on paper towels. Toast the nuts on a baking sheet in a 350° F oven until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove, and cool completely before chopping.
