Charoset

Source: Betsy Mullins

Amounts for 1-1/2 Cups Charoset

2 apples, peeled and chopped small

1/2 cup blanched silvered almonds, chopped small

3/4 tsp. cinnamon

1-1/2 to 2 T honey

1/8 cup sweet grape wine


Combine everything. It will look like too much liquid, but let it rest a while and the liquid will be absorbed. Betsy uses the food processor to chop the apples (2 apples at a time) and the almonds. It's best to purchase almonds that are already slivered or sliced. Generally, this is made the day before the seder so it can sit a while.


Amounts for 12 Cups Charoset

16 apples, peeled and chopped small

4 cups blanched slivered almonds, chopped small

6 tsp. cinnamon

3/4 cup honey

1 cup sweet grape wine
