# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It's ready in five minutes but tastes like you actually planned something special for yourself.
  • The combination of creamy, sweet, and salty hits in a way that makes regular toast feel boring forever after.
  • It works equally well at 8 a.m. or 4 p.m.—breakfast or snack, no judgment.
02 -
  • Cold pistachio butter won't spread without tearing the toast—this is non-negotiable, so either let it sit out or run the jar under warm water for a few seconds first.
  • The quality of your pistachios matters enormously; stale ones make the whole thing taste flat, so if yours have been open for weeks, buy fresh.
03 -
  • Buy pistachio butter from places with good turnover; rancid nuts ruin everything, and you'll taste the difference immediately.
  • Toast your bread one notch higher than you normally would for regular toast—the pistachio butter insulates it and makes it taste even better slightly crispy.
