Prep time: 10 minutes
Chill time: 2 hours
Kitchen equipment you’ll need: food processor
Ingredients:
2 cups dried cherries*
½ cup pistachios, salted or unsalted*
Salt + pepper, to taste
Directions:
Pulse the pistachios in a food processor until chopped. Mix in cherries and process until you get a sticky paste. Place the paste at the center of a sheet of plastic wrap. Tightly roll up to form a ”salami.”
Refrigerate 1–2 hours until firm, then slice into ½” pieces to serve.
To take hiking or backpacking, package in single serving size bags or parchment paper rolls. Keep refrigerated until departure.
*Mix it up! Try subbing the cherries for dates, apricots, blueberries, or cranberries; exchange the pistachios for almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts, or peanuts.
