Since the 19th century, when pistachios were imported to America and later to Europe, their popularity has continued to grow. They are most widely grown in Iran, Turkey and the USA. It often takes up to 10 years before the trees begin to bear fruit. In addition, each nut is cracked individually, which makes its processing a labor-intensive and costly process.
How to use Pistachio butter - organic:
The recipe ideas with pistachio tahini are endless, both for sweet and in savory dishes, but our advice is to enjoy it mainly raw whenever possible, adding it at the end of cooking or to completely raw dishes. In this way, you will preserve the valuable nutrients it is rich - fiber, proteins, healthy fats, vitamin B6, potassium, etc.
The formation of a layer of oil on the surface is a natural process, ensuring that tahini does not contain emulsifiers. A brief stirring before use is sufficient.
Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
