Top Tip
You can prep all the components in advance! Whip the cream, chop the strawberries, crush the pistachios and then quickly put everything together right before bringing them to the table.
Pistachio spread is everywhere right now, and for good reason, it's creamy, nutty, and totally addictive.
Storage
Unfilled pavlova nests: Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Make sure they stay dry (humidity is their enemy!).
Pistachio cream filling: Store in the fridge in a covered bowl for up to 2 days. Give it a quick whisk before using if it softens.
Assembled pavlovas: Best eaten fresh! Once the nests are filled, they'll start to soften after a few hours. For the best crunch, assemble them just before serving.
