Pacific Ile Flottante

Name: Pacific Ile Flottante
Ingredients: Ginger Creme Anglaise; 1.5 cups heavy cream, half and half, or full fat milk, depending on how rich you'd like your creme (I combine equal parts cream and 1% milk since we rarely have full fat milk at the house); 1/2 cup granulated sugar, divided; pinch of salt; 2 inch piece of fresh ginger, skin left on, cut into rounds; 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste; 3 large egg yolks; Pistachio Praline and Meringue Islands; 1/2 cup granulated sugar; 1/2 cup water; 1/2 teaspoon matcha powder (sold in tea shops); 1/2 cup pistachios, shelled and roughly chopped; 3 large egg whites; 1/3 cup confectioner's sugar, sifted; pinch salt
