Home Pistache pesto met munt

Recipes

Pesto can really make everything tastier, whether you use it to marinate chicken, spread it on toast, or as a dip: it always tastes great.

Besides tasting delicious, the pistachio-mint tapenade is also super healthy! Did you know that pistachios, like grapes, grow in clusters on a bush?

The nuts are also rich in antioxidants, iron, potassium, magnesium, zinc, calcium, phosphorus, and vitamins B and E. Despite the high fat content of pistachios (the nut is about half fat, most of which is unsaturated), they can easily be included if you’re watching your weight. Of all nuts, pistachios contain the fewest calories per 100 grams. A 30-gram portion contains roughly 160 calories.

Pistachio pesto with mint

Like its well-known green pesto cousin, this tapenade is easy to make and ready in no time. Finely chop the pistachios in a chopper—or if you don't have one, use your blender or food processor. Remove the chopped pistachios and set them aside. Put all the ingredients in the chopper and puree and pulse until the tapenade is smooth and a beautiful green. Use enough olive oil to make the tapenade silky.

Serve this delicious pistachio-mint tapenade on toast or bread, but it's also great with chicken or lamb.

Cooking mode Prevents your screen from going to sleep

Store the pistachio pesto in a clean jar in the refrigerator. Cover the surface with a layer of olive oil so the pesto stays nicely green. This way you can keep it for up to a week.

Serve this tapenade on toasted bread or crostini as an appetizer, or use it as a sauce for grilled chicken or lamb chops for an elegant meal.
