Description
This grape salad recipe with Ruby Grapes and Pistachio Dust is a family favorite, offering a delightful explosion of creamy sweetness and a satisfying crunch. It’s a quick, refreshing, and easy-to-prepare dish, perfect for any meal or potluck.
Ingredients
- 900 g Ruby Grapes, seedless and firm
- 225 g cream cheese, full-fat, softened (or light cream cheese)
- 120 g sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
- 50 g granulated sugar, adjust to taste
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 60 g pistachios, shelled, unsalted, crushed
Instructions
- Wash Grapes: Gently wash 900 g (2 lbs) of Ruby Grapes under cool water. Pat them thoroughly dry with a clean towel until no moisture remains, about 2-3 minutes.
- Prepare Cream Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, combine 225 g (8 oz) softened cream cheese, 120 g (0.5 cup) sour cream (or Greek yogurt), 50 g (0.25 cup) granulated sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer or whisk until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Combine Ingredients: Carefully add the dried Ruby Grapes to the cream cheese mixture. Gently fold them in with a large rubber spatula until each grape is evenly coated, approximately 1 minute.
- Chill Salad: Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Garnish and Serve: Just before serving, generously sprinkle the top with 60 g (0.5 cup) of crushed pistachios. If the cream mixture seems too thick after chilling, stir in 1-2 tablespoons of milk or a splash of cream to reach desired consistency.
Notes
For a lighter touch, use organic Ruby Grapes and opt for light cream cheese or high-protein Greek yogurt. Raw or lightly toasted pistachios boost healthy fats. For low-carb options, use sugar substitutes. Dairy-free alternatives include plant-based cream cheese and sour cream. Look for plump, brightly colored, firm Ruby Grapes, typically in late summer through fall. If the cream mixture is too thick after chilling, stir in 1-2 tablespoons of milk or cream to adjust consistency.
