  1. Even though we patted the whitefish fillets dry before seasoning and adding the pistachio, it was so wet and soggy coming out of the oven. I put it back in, under the broiler and that only marginally helped. What might I have done wrong?

    1. Peggy, If the Pistachios were not ground enough that could have been the issue. Try this: instead of oil, add a light layer of mayo to the fish, then press in the finely ground Pistachios. Works like a charm!
