Sephardic Charoset - (Combination of Syrian, Morrocan and Yemenite recipes)
- 1 cup pitted dates
- 1 apple, peeled
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- ginger juice (grate a fresh piece of ginger and squeeze the grated portion to extract the juice)
- sweet wine
Process peeled apple in food processor. Add remaining ingredients and process until smooth. Add ginger juice and wine to taste.
All measurements are approximate -- you really need to taste as you go. Also, feel free to add/substitute other dried fruits (e.g.,figs, apricots, prunes, etc), spices (e.g., cinnamon), and nuts.
