Traditional Charoset

From , About.com

Charoset is a Passover dish that reminds us of the mortar that the slaves used when they built for Pharoah.

Ingredients:

  • 12 apples
  • 1 - 1 1/2 cup of pecans
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 6-8 Tbsp. sugar or to taste
  • 6-8 Tbsp. sweet red wine

Preparation:

1. Chop the nuts and apples to the consistency you want (a food processor can be used). The texture of the charoset should remind us of the mortar used by the slaves to build.
2. Sprinkle with spices, and moisten with wine.
3. This charoset keeps three days in the refrigerator.
