Historically, semifreddo originated in Italy as a variation of traditional parfait and became popular for its delicate texture. In this recipe, creamy mascarpone gives the dessert a silkiness, while pistachios add a nutty crunch. The bright tartness of raspberries balances and refines the flavor. Semifreddo is perfect for summer treats or festive gatherings. Before serving, it is allowed to soften slightly to achieve a velvety consistency. Slices of this dessert will adorn any table, delighting with their tenderness and harmony of flavors.
