Equipment

  • 1 Food processor or Thermomix

Ingredients

  • 2 cups raw pistachios without the shells
  • 1 tsp grapeseed oil
  • 1 pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350oF (180Place pistachios on a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roast pistachios for 10 minutes. 
  • Place pistachios on a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roast pistachios for 10 minutes. 
  • After 5 minutes in the oven, shake pistachios and turn baking sheet around. This will help pistachios to roast evenly and not to burn.
  • Remove the pistachios from the oven, transfer into onother baking sheet and allow them to cool completely, before making paste. Pistachios still will be roasting and could burn on the baking sheet after you take them out the oven. That's why I recommend to trasfer into diffrent baking sheet and let cool. 
  • Put pistachios into food processor or Thermomix and add salt and grapeseed oil.
  • After that blend on high speed until pistachios become into smooth pistachio paste. This may take a few minutes, depending on your food processor. You can also use Magic Bullet to make paste. 
  • Transfer pistachio paste with the spatula into a glass jar untill ready to use.
