Haroset 01 – African Recipes

Recipe ingredients and directions:

MOROCCAN-STYLE HAROSET

2 c walnut pieces

1 c blanched slivered or whole almonds

25 pitted dates

10 large, brown calimyrna dried figs

20 dried apricots

10 large, pitted prunes

1/2 c shelled pistachio

1/4 c sweet red Pesach wine, or as needed

ground cinnamon

Put all of the nuts and dried fruit through the fine blade of a

food grinder or finely grind them together in a food processor

fitted with the steel blade (in batches, if necessary).

Mix in just enough wine to make a smooth paste that is soft and

malleable.

Form the mixture into 1-inch balls.

Roll the balls in ground cinnamon.

Store the balls in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator

for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze these.

For best flavor, let them come to room temperature before serving.

Makes about 6 dozen 1-inch balls (about 3 cups of haroset mixture).
