How to store pistachio crepe pasta

  • Best eaten fresh, but can be stored in the fridge for up to 1 day
  • Reheat gently on low heat with a splash of milk
  • Keep fruit and crepe pasta separate if storing for better texture

Variations:

  • Use apricots, pears, or cherries instead of plums.
  • Add a spoon of yogurt or mascarpone for extra softness.

Common mistakes when making pistachio crepe pasta

  • Overcooking the crepe ribbons—they should just warm, not fry
  • Adding too much liquid, which can make the sauce runny
  • Using unripe fruit that won’t caramelize properly

Tips for the best pistachio crepe pasta

Slice the crepes evenly so they heat through at the same time.

Keep the heat low when adding pistachio cream so it stays smooth.

Use ripe but firm fruit so it caramelizes without turning mushy.
