The reference describes nut praline as toasted nuts combined with caramelised sugar and blended into a paste. Its hazelnut example is used as a pastry component.

For the pistachio version demonstrated in class, use the chef’s corrected recipe for the quantities and cooking method; this definition does not establish the missing temperature.
