Pistachio Paste Prep: If needed, add salt to the pistachio paste, adjusting to taste. Make sure it has a strong pistachio flavor but it's not too salty.
Yolk Separation: Separate egg yolks from whites and set them aside.
Milk Reserve: Measure and set aside 1/2 cup of milk in an easy-to-pour container.
Pot Preparation: In a pot, mix remaining milk, egg yolks, sugar, white chocolate, and pistachio paste. Heat until nearly boiling while stirring often.
Starch Slurry: Mix starch with reserved milk until smooth, ensuring no lumps.
