A colloid mill works well for pistachio paste production, and the natural oil content of pistachios actually helps the nuts flow smoothly through the rotor-stator gap, aiding the shift from dry roasted pieces into a creamy paste. Because pistachios are relatively delicate in flavor and color, moderate processing speed and cooling help prevent overheating, which could otherwise dull the bright green color and fresh taste of the finished paste.
