Sugar Rush: Pistachio Blueberry Turnover at Bouchon Bakery

20090629-sugarrush1.jpg

I've never considered the marriage of blueberries and pistachio before, but Bouchon Bakery definitely made it work in this turnover ($3.50). At first you don't even notice the blueberries—which are whole and pop in your mouth, unlike the usual gelatinous kind found in pastries—but they're hiding behind the creamy pistachio clouds inside. It's kind of like a pastry hoagie with two long flaky slices, topped with pistachio bits for an extra crunch, holding all the goodness inside. This is definitely a two-handed responsibility.
