Pistachio Butter

Cultural Context

Pistachio butter has its roots in Middle Eastern cuisine, where pistachios are prized for their rich flavor and health benefits. Traditionally, it is enjoyed as a spread on bread or as a dip for fruits. In modern times, it has gained popularity worldwide as a nutritious alternative to peanut butter, celebrated for its unique taste and vibrant green color.

Servings4
300g unsalted pistachios
50g milk powder
30g powdered sugar
50 ml neutral oil
blue food colour (optional)

honey

🥗Healthier: maple syrup

💰Cheaper: agave syrup

Maple syrup is a natural sweetener and often less expensive.

oil

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Coconut oil adds flavor and can be healthier.

1

Toast pistachios for 5-10 minutes on low-medium heat.

2

Let them cool. Place the pistachios on a kitchen towel and rub them to remove the skin.

3

Add toasted pistachios into a blender, blend until it turns into a paste, this takes around 10-15 minutes.

4

Once it comes together, you can add the other ingredients. Add milk powder, powdered sugar and neutral oil (I used sunflower oil). Blend until smooth.

5

During the blending process, make sure to take breaks so that the blender doesn’t overheat.

6

Optionally, you can add blue food colouring to cancel the yellowness of the pistachios, this gives the butter a greener colour.
