2 tablespoons honey orange blossom or wildflower preferred
3/4 cup toasted salted pistachios roughly chopped
1 teaspoon roasted ground cinnamon

Instructions

Notes

Kitchen Tips: you can find toasted or roasted nuts in most supermarkets, but if you can't, or if you prefer to roast your own, try The Weiser Kitchen's Roasted Nuts recipe. Chiffonade simply means leafy greens or herbs cut into thin strips. To make a chiffonade of mint, stack the leaves on top of one another on a work surface. Roll tightly from stem to tip and then cut the roll crosswise in 1/8-inch slices with a very sharp knife. Unroll and you will have lovely, thin slivers.
