# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together in less time than you'd spend scrolling, but tastes intentional and special.
  • The texture contrast between creamy, crunchy, and crispy toast keeps your mouth genuinely interested.
  • It works equally well at 8 a.m. or 4 p.m., no questions asked.
02 -
  • Cold pistachio butter won't spread—it'll tear your toast to pieces, so let it sit out for five minutes if it's been in the fridge.
  • The magic happens in the contrast, so don't skip the salt even if you're not usually a salt person; it's the thing that makes you taste the pistachio instead of just the sweetness.
03 -
  • Toast your bread slightly under your normal preference because the pistachio butter and honey add richness that makes it feel more done than it actually is.
  • Keep a small spoon nearby for the pistachio butter so it spreads cleanly instead of being dragged across the toast like it's fighting back.
