Pistachio Dukkah

If you are looking for a great topping that can be sprinkled on almost any dish, brings crunchy addictive texture and middle eastern flavors, then Dukkah is for you !

Discovered it for the first time in Australia at some friends place. They had pan seared some salmon and just topped it with store-bought Dukkah. The next day I rushed into the shop where they had bought it and started using it on almost anything.. to the point my buddy started to be fed up with it :) So unlike me, as usually I hate eating the same thing twice.

Anyway, after sometime, I used it with more balance :) and more importantly started making my own, as it is such an easy treat you can bulk bake and flavor as you like. Super easy, the only thing is that you have to toast and grind your seeds (really worth the efforts, trust me )

Recipe for this variation using pistachios just below (if you don't find pistachios, you can swap for hazelnuts). Enjoy and let me know what you ate it with !
