How Orange Blossom Adds a Personal Touch to my easy pistachio cake
Orange blossom is a fragrant flower commonly used in baking to add a delicate citrus aroma to cakes, cookies, and other sweet treats. It’s extracted from the bitter orange tree (Citrus aurantium) and is used as a natural flavouring ingredient in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and North African cuisines.
When used in baking, add only a few teaspoons (or table spoons if you use the French brand Vahiné), as its taste can be overpowering. It pairs well with ingredients like almonds, honey, vanilla and obviously today with pistachio…
