APPLE AND WALNUT HAROSETH
This very classic Ashkenazi haroseth, which is a ceremonial part of the Passover Seder, is made from diced apple, toasted walnuts, a touch of cinnamon and a shower of sweet Passover wine. It's meant to represent the mortar used by the Israelites when they were slaves in Egypt. The sweeter the apples you use, the less honey you'll need to add at the end. But tart apples are nice here, too, as long as you balance their acidity. If you can't get Manischewitz or another sweet Passover wine, ruby port is a fine substitute. You can make this haroseth one day ahead and store it in the refrigerator; just mix it well before serving to reincorporate any liquid that might have seeped out of the mix.

CLASSIC APPLE HAROSET
I found this recipe while searching for new dishes to introduce for the Zaar World Tour of 2005. With the holidays coming up, I've decided to post it though it is as of yet untried. Use the shredding attachment on the food processor to quickly shred the apples. You can also grind or chop them. Don't refrigerate more than two hours before serving or the haroset will be too watery.

Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Use a variety of apples that are both tart and sweet, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
- Chop the apples finely: This will help them to cook evenly and break down into a smooth paste.
- Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to prevent the haroset from burning.
- Cook the haroset over low heat: This will help to prevent the sugar from caramelizing too quickly.
- Stir the haroset frequently: This will help to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Add the nuts and spices at the end of cooking: This will help to preserve their flavor.
- Serve the haroset at room temperature or chilled: It is traditionally served at room temperature, but it can also be chilled for a more refreshing taste.
Conclusion:
Apple haroset is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It is a traditional Jewish food that is often served at Passover, but it can also be enjoyed as a snack or dessert. With its sweet and tart flavor, apple haroset is a surefire hit with people of all ages.
