As soon as the sugar melts, remove from the heat. For the base Place a frying pan over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon butter. Add half of the sweet bread slices and toast them for 1 minute on both sides until golden. Follow the same process for the remaining slices. Lay the sweet bread slices into a 25x32 cm baking pan, making sure to cover the whole surface of the baking pan without leaving any gaps. Pour the syrup over the sweet bread, remove the lemon peels, and set aside until the syrup is absorbed. For the crème patisserie Place a pot over low heat. Add 900 g of the milk, half of the sugar, and let it come to a boil. Attention! Do not stir. In a mortar and pestle add 1 tablespoon of the sugar, the mastic, the mahlab, and the cardamom, and crush until powdered. Transfer to the pot with the milk and add the vanilla as well. In a bowl add the egg yolks, the rest of the sugar, and whisk until the sugar is dissolved. Add the rest of the milk, the corn starch, and mix. As soon as the mixture in the pot comes to a boil, transfer it very slowly into the bowl with the yolks, whisking constantly. Return the whole mixture to the pot and place it back on heat. Stir constantly until the cream thickens. Remove from the heat and add the butter. Stir until it melts. Spread the cream over the sweet bread and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 3-4 hours until the dessert is chilled and thickened. Spread the whipped cream with a spoon and, with a fork, draw some lines on it. Sprinkle with the pistachios and serve.
