# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It comes together in five minutes but tastes like you spent an hour in the kitchen.
  • The contrast between creamy pistachio butter, warm toast, and those crunchy nuts is genuinely addictive.
  • It bridges that weird gap between breakfast and dessert without feeling guilty about either.
02 -
  • Toast darkness is everything—I learned this the hard way by trying to spread pistachio butter on limp, barely-toasted bread and watching the whole thing turn into a soggy mess.
  • If your pistachio butter is separated with oil on top, stir it back together before spreading; that oil is flavor and texture, not something to drain away.
03 -
  • Make your own pistachio butter in a food processor if you can't find one you like—roasted, shelled pistachios take about fifteen minutes to transform into something creamy and perfect.
  • Keep raw honey at room temperature instead of refrigerated so it drizzles smoothly without you fighting it.
