How To Make Expert Level Pistachio Orgeat

This expert level pistachio orgeat recipe is a little labor intensive but so worth the effort.

Pistachio, Rose and Cardamom Orgeat:
50g pistachios - shelled with skins removed
195g hot water
2 cardamom pods
40 drops of rose water
.4g gum arabic
.09g xanthan gum
165g sugar

Soak the pistachios in cold water for 5 minutes.
Drain and soak for another 5 minutes in hot water.
Once skins easily slip off, drain pistachios and remove the skins one by one.
Add the pistachios to a blender with hot water with the seeds from 2 cardamom pods and blend on high for one minute.
Pour mixture into nut milk bad and squeeze out the liquid.
While the pistachio cardamom mil is still hot, add to a clean blender with rose water, and sugar and blend on medium. Add gums while blender is running and let it run for a minute and a half.
Pour orgeat into a jar and label it. This should keep for around 3 weeks in the refrigerator.
