What is a Charoset ?

Charoset or charoses is a sweet, lumpy paste served during the Passover Seder. Known in Jewish cuisine, it is a favorite of children. Some people believe it is the tastiest thing eaten during the holiday. The consistency is intended to remind those participating in the Seder of the bricks and mortar their ancestors made as slaves in Ancient Egypt.

There are as many recipes for charoset as there are Jewish families, but a typical recipe from the Eastern European (or Ashkenazi) tradition would include crushed nuts, apples, cinnamon, sweet wine, and honey. Recipes in the Sephardic tradition usually include raisins and may also include ingredients native to the Middle East, such as figs, dates, and sesame seeds.

Recipe:
1.5 C peeled, cored and chopped apples (MacIntosh, preferably)
.75 C finely chopped walnuts
2 T sweet red wine
1 tsp. cinnamon
2 T honey

Mix together and refrigerate overnight for best flavor. Adjust seasoning, if necessary, after it's chilled. For a family Sedar, triple this recipe. Serve with matzah. Or just eat with a spoon.

New Look for Kosher Wine Review

The Kosher Wine Review has a new look and some great new advantages:

  • Searching for wines is far, far easier. You should definitely try the "Guided Search" — click on "Search Wines" at the top of the page for to get to the search page.
  • You can subscribe to an RSS feed of this site to get all new updates. Click here or just enter the URL of this site into your RSS reader.
  • Also on the left-hand side of the this page, a list of the last five reviews.

Finally, this system supports guest comments and even guest wine reviews. I won't open comments to the wide world — unfortunately any site can be the target of spam, and any site with Jewish-related content is vulnerable to antisemitic attacks — but if you drop me a line we can discuss adding you to the list of authorized users.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank my readers, my fellow tasters, those dedicated vinters who create kosher wine, and my patient spouse for helping make The Kosher Wine Review what it is today.
