A variety of nut butters should be available right with the usual peanut butter at your local grocery store. High-end stores will have a bigger variety. Some "fruit stands-turned-stores" have a bigger selection yet. Read More

Where on earth do you get pistachio butter? Never heard of it but I love pistachios so wouldn't mind trying it. I eat cashew almond and peanut butters already. Read More

Nut butters can almost always be easily made in your food processor or blender just like hummus. For pistachio butter throw a few handfuls of raw pistachios in and press "go" or "on" or "puree"...whatever gets it grinding at a moderate-to-high speed. Not smooth enough? Add a tiny bit of olive or canola oil (and hit "go" again). You might also want to throw in a bit of salt as most--even "all natural" and "organic"--nut butters are salted. Read More
