  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degree F 2. Grease a 6 cup loaf pan with the butter. Beat the egg white until stiff. Add the sugar all at once, and beat for a few seconds. Fold the pistachios and the dices berried into the beaten whites, and transfer the mixture to the loaf pan.

The dessert will deflate slightly. The recipe can be prepared to this point up to 1 day ahead, covered with plastic wrap, and refrigerated.
