5. 5

   Cover the dough with a sheet of foil and weigh this down with dry beans or pastry weights.

6. 6

   Bake in a 400-degree oven for 10 minutes; remove the foil and weights and bake for another 5 minutes until the pastry is lightly browned.

   Arrange the raspberries on the bottom of the pastry shell, and carefully spoon the white chocolate over them to cover.

    Sprinkle with chopped pistachio nuts and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving in flan wedges. (or freeze and cut into bite-sized squares if you're preparing an assortment of squares and desserts for a larger gathering).
