Pistachio nougat is a sweet, chewy confection commonly enjoyed in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, though its variations can be found worldwide. Made primarily from sugar, honey, egg whites, and nuts—most notably pistachios—this treat combines delicate textures with the rich, nutty flavor of its star ingredient. Pistachios contribute protein, healthy fats, and fiber, which can support heart health and provide sustained energy. However, pistachio nougat is high in sugar, making it a dessert best savored in moderation. Some recipes may also include natural flavors like vanilla or rose water, lending a fragrant complexity to the mix. While traditionally served during festive occasions, its blend of pistachio's nutritional benefits and indulgent sweetness makes it an everyday favorite for those with a sweet tooth.
