NIGELLA LAWSON'S HAROSET FROM THE VENETIAN GHETTO

Nigella Lawson's Haroset from the Venetian Ghetto image

Haroset, a sweet fruit and nut paste, is a crucial component of the Seder plate. Nigella Lawson's sumptuous, Venetian-style haroset is made with chestnuts, pine nuts, various dried fruits, and plenty of spices.

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 1

Ingredients

Dried Fruit, Nut

Steps:

Crumble the chestnuts into a pan, and add the sultanas. Then chop, or cut up roughly using scissors, letting them drop into the pan as you go, the dried figs, dates and apricots. Quarter, core and then roughly chop the apple (I don't bother to peel it), and add along with the rest of the ingredients. These look beautiful before they merge in the heat, as you can see to the right. Stir well, bring to the boil and then lower the heat, partially cover, and cook for 1 -1½ hours, until everything coheres in a dense sticky mass. Pack into a jar or jars.

Categories Dolce

Time 15m

Yield 5 cups of Haroset

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 cup golden raisins, soaked in warm water for 30 minutes
½ cup dark raisins, soaked in warm water for 30 minutes
6 dried figs, ends trimmed and and minced
½ cup of dried apricots, minced
6 dates, pits removed and chopped
1 cup lightly toasted skinned almonds, coarsely chopped
1 cup lightly toasted pine nuts
2 Tbs of Kosher for Passover Liquor or Grappa
Grated rind from one large orange
⅓ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
½ to ¾ cup of superior quality honey

Steps:

Combine the prepared fruits and nuts, add the orange juice, orange rind, and Liquor. Mix together well, the dates will break down to a paste like consistency and act to bind the mixture.
Once thoroughly combined, begin to add the honey starting with ½ cup. The amount you need will depend upon the plumpness of the fruit, especially the dates. You want a paste that holds together nicely and can be taken easily with a spoon. Additional honey may be added once the mixture sits for a day or two.
Cover and refrigerate until needed.

PROVENçAL HAROSETH FOR PASSOVER

Provençal Haroseth for Passover image

This is a 13th-century haroseth recipe from Provence, using the Mediterranean fruits and nuts that are still available in the region. Back then, Jewish families would have saved chestnuts from the fall harvest and roasted or boiled them for this springtime Passover recipe - and then laboriously peeled them by hand - but now you can buy cooked, pre-peeled chestnuts any time.

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

Ingredients

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.
