Joan Nathan's Haroseth image

The Jewish food maven Joan Nathan serves this haroseth at her family's Passover gatherings. More than any other Jewish dish, this sweet blend of fruit and nuts - a mixture that symbolizes the mortar with which the Israelites laid bricks during their enslavement in Egypt - varies wildly depending on the availability of ingredients. The Nathan family version resembles a Moroccan haroseth rather than the popular American version made with apples, nuts and sweet wine.

Time 15m

Yield About 6 dozen haroseth

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 cups raisins
2 cups almonds, blanched
1/2 apple, peeled, cored and quartered
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, or to taste

Steps:

  • Grind the raisins and 1 1/2 cups of the almonds together in a meat grinder (see tip). Set aside in a bowl.
  • Grate the apple into the raisins and almonds and add the cinnamon. Mix well to combine.
