Recipe Description
To make charoset you need:2 or 3 applesa small bag of walnutsabout 8 oz of grape juice or red wine2 or 3 tbsp of cinnamina knifea cutting boarda food processorThe grape juice and cinnamon are to taste. The grape juice will make the charoset more liquidy. The choice is yours.Tip: Using different types of apples can make the charoset taste better! I like to use gala or another sweet apple and a tart apple to add a contrast in flavor.
Using an apple chopper, makes cutting the apples faster. Make sure you throw out the core and the seeds. Chop up both apples. I ended up only needing two apples to fill the container.
After you chop the apples put them in the food processor.
Add in the walnuts and cinnamon. It is easier to add the grape juice after the rest of the charoset is in the container.
Using the chop setting on the food processor, pulse until all the ingredients are combined. You want the finished product to be fairly fine. About halfway through, you may need to scrap down the sides with a spoon.
Pour the charoset into the container. Use a spoon to get it out of the machine.
Add in the grape juice. You want the finished product to be smooth, but not soupy.
Mix all the ingredients together. Add in more grape juice or cinnamon as needed. The finshed product should be brownish with a hint of purple.
Eat your charoset with matzah or plain!It always tastes better after it sits for a little while.
