PERSIAN CHAROSET (HALEG)



Persian Charoset (Haleg) image

Grind together all the ingredients that do not come already ground. Combine very well. Tricks of the trade: I buy already ground walnuts and almonds to make

Provided by Reyna Simnegar

Yield Servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (6-ounce) package ground walnuts (1 1/2 cups)
1 (6-ounce) package ground almonds (1 11/2 cups)
1/2 cup pistachio nut meats, ground
1 cup date paste
1/2 cup raisins, ground
1/2 cup grape juice
1 banana, peeled and ground
1 apple, peeled and ground
2 tablespoons charoset spice

Steps:

  • Grind together all the ingredients that do not come already ground. Combine very well. Tricks of the trade: I buy already ground walnuts and almonds to make my life easier. I also purchase date paste so I don't have to grind that either. These are easily available kosher-for-Passover at many kosher groceries. The rest of the ingredients I process together into a wet paste similar in texture to chummus. Charoset spice is made by Sadaf and you can get it online; or simply mix equal parts of cardamom, ginger, and cinnamon. Keep haleg refrigerated and if it gets too thick, thin it with grape juice or even sweet wine to give it a grown up twist!

JOAN NATHAN'S HAROSETH



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.

Provided by Joan Nathan

Categories     appetizer, side dish

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.
  • Using your hands, press the mixture into 1-inch balls. Using the remaining almonds, press 1 into each haroseth. There will be lots of haroseth left over; serve in bowls at the table during Passover.
