NOTES

Pistachio Joconde biscuit: the recipe calls for only almond powder.
Original creator decided to use 50% almond powder and 50% pistachio powder.
White chocolate panna cotta: you will have 60 g leftovers.
Croustillant: a bit generous.
Pistachio bavarois: you will have some leftovers.
Pistachio glaze: the temperature of the glaze is a suggestion.
Try with the back of a spoon: if the glaze covers it well, the temperature is right, otherwise let cool if too runny, or heat a few seconds if too thick.
