- In a bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade, grind pistachios till fine but not powdery. Divide grnd pistachios equally between the sanding sugar and flour; set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed till fluffy, 3 to 4 min. Add in vanilla and salt, and beat for 1 minute. Add in the yolks one at a time, and beat till proportionately combined. Add in the flour and pistachio mix, and mix till just combined. Remove the dough, and form into a 4- by 6-inch rectangle; wrap in plastic, and refrigeratefor 1 hour.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with Silpats, and set aside. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 1/8-inch thickness. Brush the dough with the egg white to moisten. Cover proportionately with the pistachio-sanding sugar mix. Lightly press the mix into the dough with the rolling pin. Using a 1 1/2-inch fluted square cookie cutter, cut cookies as close as possible to avoid waste. Place on prepared baking sheets.
- Bake till the edges are just lightly golden brown, about 18 min. Transfer cookies to a cooling rack. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
- This recipe yields about 48 cookies.
