CHAROSET



Charoset image

This Gluten-Free Charoset Recipe is one of my favorite Passover foods. During the Seder, this sweet, fruity dish holds a special, symbolic place, reminding us of the mortar which the Jews used to bond bricks while enslaved in Egypt. View the full recipe and more like it at www.elanaspantry.com!

SEPHARDIC DATE CHAROSET

This is a close approximation of my grandmother's recipe. She used (and I prefer) red wine instead of grape juice, but the option for no alcohol is there for you.

PASSOVER CHAROSET



Passover Charoset image

I absolutely love this Passover sedar staple. It's wonderful on the sedar table eaten on some matzo, but is also great leftover as a side dish for lunch or dinner. This basic recipe would serve 2 people. For a big family dinner, I would suggest making 6-8 apples and increasing the rest of the ingredients accordingly. This is traditionally made with Mogen David sweet wine, but any sweet red wine or even grape juice would do.

SEPHARDI CHAROSET



Sephardi charoset image

Traditionally, Sephardi charoset is made to celebrate the Jewish festival of Passover. The dessert wine, sweet dates and fragrant cinnamon give it a festive feel

Provided by Victoria Prever

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

100ml-120ml sweet dessert wine, red wine or grape juice
110g raisins
55g medjool dates, or regular dates, finely chopped
55g dried apricots, finely chopped
large pinch of cinnamon, plus extra to taste (optional)
60g whole almonds, toasted

Steps:

  • Heat 100ml wine or grape juice in a pan. Bring to a simmer and add the dried fruit and cinnamon. Simmer gently until the liquid is syrupy and the fruit tender, about 5-6 mins. If the liquid evaporates before the fruit has softened or starts to dry out, add another 20ml of wine or grape juice. Turn off the heat and leave to cool.
  • Tip the toasted almonds into the small bowl of a food processor and pulse until you have larger and smaller pieces, but no whole nuts. Tip them into a mixing bowl, then spoon the cooled fruit mixture into the food processor and pulse until it starts to form a paste, but still has some bigger lumps of fruit remaining.
  • Scrape the fruit into the mixing bowl with the nuts and stir to combine. Add a pinch of salt and taste, adding more cinnamon and salt to taste, if you like. Will keep for several days in an airtight container.
