# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It tastes indulgent but takes five minutes, so you get that gourmet feeling on a regular Tuesday morning.
  • The contrast between creamy, salty, and sweet is almost addictive—you'll find yourself making it more than once a week.
02 -
  • Spreading pistachio butter on cold toast is a fight you'll lose—always wait for the toast to cool just slightly so it's still warm but won't shred under your knife.
  • Not all pistachio butters are created equal, and tasting it first before committing to the recipe can save you from a disappointing breakfast.
03 -
  • Warm the pistachio butter briefly if it's been in the fridge and it's too stiff to spread without tearing your toast.
  • The moment between spreading the butter and adding the honey is when everything smells best—pause and actually notice it.
