CHAROSETS (GRANDPA'S RECIPE)
This is a recipe for charosets, a traditional food on the Passover Seder Plate. Who knows how this recipe came to be--my grandfather's family was from Russia, but the ingredients have a distinctly Sephardic tone. Many who swear they hate charosets love this recipe, and it also helps counteract certain properties of matzah ;) I hope you enjoy it as much as we do--it is a great family activity to make it, as the chopping part takes forever. We always make a double recipe because everyone wants enough to take home to eat during the holiday week. I'm totally guessing on the prep time. We make an evening of it.

Steps:
- Chop apples coarsely in a large bowl (we have always used a double bladed chopper and a wooden bowl).
- Use a food processor to chop the other fruits and nuts (obviously this was done by hand originally, but the processor makes it soooooo much easier).
- Add all the ingredients to the apples and chop very well to blend.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. Fresh fruits and nuts will give your charoset a brighter flavor and a more appealing texture.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients. Charoset is a versatile dish that can be made with a variety of fruits, nuts, and spices. Feel free to add your own personal touch to the recipe.
- Make sure to chop the fruits and nuts finely. This will help them to blend together better and create a more cohesive dish.
- Don't overcook the charoset. Charoset should be cooked until the fruits and nuts are softened, but not mushy.
- Serve charoset at room temperature or chilled. Charoset can be served immediately after it is made, or it can be chilled for later.
