The Real Thing Is Brownish Green

Yesterday, a friend asked me if the color of pistachio gelato made with real pistachios is not bright green (which indicates food coloring was used), but a more brownish green color. The answer is yes, it is brownish green!

Here’s my second breakfast (Yes, Sicilians eat this for breakfast.) when I was at Valley of the Temples back in May: A sweet brioche stuffed with pistachio gelato. Notice the color. That’s the real thing! Mmmmm good!

You’ll have ample opportunity to sample this delicacy and more with me on our Experience Sicily 2019 multi-sensory, small-group tours.
