Loading

A Charoset is a condiment made from fruits, nuts and wine.


Prep time: 4 hours 15 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Serves 8-10 as a side

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups Gamay Noir
  • 3 Cinnamon Sticks
  • 1 tablespoon Honey- heaping tablespoon
  • 3 Apples – sweet and tart like Honeycrisp
  • 5 Medjool Dates
  • Kosher Salt
  • 1 1/2 cups Walnuts – toasted
  • Matzo- for serving

Directions:

  1. Stir in the toasted walnuts just before serving, with matzo.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine the wine, cinnamon sticks, and honey. Bring to a boil over medium high heat and then reduce to a simmer. Cook until reduced to about ½ cup (120 milliliters), 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
  3. Meanwhile, core, peel, and finely dice the apples, putting them in a big serving bowl as you go. Chop up the dates and stir them in. Pour the cooled wine mixture over the top, remove the cinnamon sticks, stir, and season with salt.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, up to overnight.
