CHAROSET 

 - Traditional Passover Seder accompaniment pronounced Har-row-set.    This paste-like, sweet spread is a prescribed  part  of  the traditional  Seder ceremony.  Its mortar-like consistency is intended to remind Jews  of  the  bricks  and  mortar  our  ancestors labored  with  as slaves in Egypt. Quite incidentally, it is delicious and tastes wonderful spread on matzah. This is the traditional  charoset from the Ashkenazic (Eastern European) Jewish tradition; very  different,  but  equally  delicious, charoset  recipes, using such ingredients as dates, raisins, and sesame, can be found in the various  Sephardic  communities (e.g., Yemenite, Persian, Turkish, Moroccan, etc.).

INGREDIENTS

4 - 6 Medium chopped or  grated  apples
1 cup finely chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts,  pecans)
1 tablespoon honey 
1 teaspoon sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 cup sweet wine or grape juice

PROCEDURE

     	(1) Wash, Core and if you prefer peel the apples
	(2) Chop Apples (a food processor can be used ) to size smaller than 	  peas but larger than rice.
	(3) Mix  nuts,  sugar,  honey,  apples  and   cinnamon
           together until well-blended.
      	(4) Add wine slowly  until  the  texture  resembles  a
            thick paste, like mortar.
      	(5) Taste and adjust cinnamon, sugar, wine amounts if you desire.
	(6) May be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
