Ingredients to make pistachio and honey cake:
1. To prepare our pistachios cake, we started by chopping the pistachios in a kitchen robot until they are almost like a flour. On the other hand, we mix all the ingredients in the kitchen robot bowl and knead at soft speed for 7 U 8 minutes, until the dough is fine. We let it ferment for an hour and a half in a bowl covered with film paper and in a warm place.
2. After this time, we put the dough on the work table, eliminate the air crushing it and stretch it with the roller to form a very long rectangle. Ideally, the sheet is very fine. We prepare the filling by mixing all the ingredients with the hands until the mixture is homogeneous. We cover the dough with this filling without reaching the banks. We put the oven at 180ºC.
3. To assemble the Greek cake, we roll the dough on its longest side by pressure so that all the ingredients stick. When finishing rolling we will have a long gypsy arm. To braid it, we cut it in two longitudinally and then, we will join those two halves getting the braid shape. Be sure to press a little at the end while you spend one side above the other.
4. Finally, we place the pistachio and honey cake on a baking sheet, lined with vegetable or cooking paper, gathering the two ends to give it a crown. minutes at 180ºC.
