Purim is around the corner and I’m super excited. I was born on Purim, which makes it one of my favorite holidays! Hamantaschen are originally a poppyseeds pocket cookie but throughout the years the've evolved into many interesting versions. I decided to open the holiday’s celebrations with this wonderful pistachio-orange hamantaschen. The pistachio & citrus combination is just out of this world. You can prepare the dough and the filling in advance and make fresh hamantaschen to satiate your need every morning.
