Had it at work. It's incredibly simple and divine.

Roasted Pine Nut Butter

With pine nuts at $35 per pound, we wondered if it made any sense at all to make a butter out of them. Then we tasted it: the richest, most indulgent nut butter ever, and satisfying in minuscule bits, so that a little 2¬ or 3¬ounce jar makes a fine food gift, like a present of caviar.

Yield: Makes about 2 cups (serving size: 1 tablespoon)

Ingredients
1 pound toasted pine nuts
1 tablespoon canola or peanut oil, or any neutral ¬flavored oil
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Preparation
Start with pine nuts toasted to medium¬ brown so that the full roasty flavor comes out. (Be careful: They burn so easily!)

To make the butter, place toasted pine nuts in a food processor. Add oil and salt. Process until smooth.

Thank you, thank you!

I'll be working on it this weekend. From my previous nut butter days, I'll substitute ghee or clarified butter. :D

Lisa,

Since we're in the middle of the move, most of the relatives get bupkiss.

You know, someday we should plan a Cookaholics round-robin gift exchange.

My crew has expectations for my mustard (3 this year) and, if I can find a good deal on pine nuts, I'll add pine nut butter.
Nancy, how long do you think the shelf life is on the nut butter? Forget the gift, I want to make some for myself ;). So it'd be great to know how long it will last in the fridge.

Thanks!

Emilie

Emilie,
I don't know but guessing 3-4 months since that's the estimated fridge life for pine nuts.
