Anne Rosenzweigs Haroseth Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Spread walnuts on a rimmed baking sheet and toast in the oven, stirring once or twice, until fragrant and golden-brown at the edges, about 10 minutes. Transfer baking sheet to a wire rack to cool.
• Finely chop the nuts and place in a large bowl. Add remaining ingredients and toss to coat. Let sit for at least 30 minutes before serving. Taste and add more honey and cinnamon, if you'd like.

Steps:

• There are countless variations of this sweet Passover relish. We like a mixture of chopped apples, pistachios and dates. Pulse in a food processor with a splash of kosher wine, then add honey, sugar, cinnamon and salt to taste. Stir in lemon zest and juice.

Steps:

• Place the almonds, raisins, apricots, figs, walnuts, apple, and chestnuts in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until you reach the consistency of your choice.
• Add the pine nuts and stir in the cinnamon, ginger and wine vinegar. Pulse once more, adding enough sweet wine to bind the ingredients.
• Store, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Bring sugar and 1 cup water to a boil in a saucepan, and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Stir in the rhubarb, and simmer for 1 or 2 minutes, until soft but still crunchy. Drain and cool.
• Reduce the wine to 1/4 cup. In a food processor, combine the pecans, apple, jicama, wine, cinnamon, cayenne pepper and rhubarb, and pulse 2 or 3 times. Remove to bowl. If desired, add a little more sugar.

Steps:

• Pulse together figs, apricots, and dates in a food processor until finely chopped, then transfer to a bowl and stir in walnuts and wine. Sprinkle spices evenly over mixture and stir until combined well.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the pomegranate juice and cinnamon.
• Combine the dates, apricots, cherries, almonds, and pistachios in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Pulse together until mixture is coarsely combined. Add the cinnamon-juice mixture and process until the mixture forms a smooth, sticky paste. Add more juice, a teaspoon at a time, if the paste does not stick together.
• Spread the coconut flakes on a large plate or jelly roll pan. Roll the dough, 1 heaping tablespoon at a time into a ball; roll in the coconut to coat evenly. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium saucepan, combine vinegar, sugar, wine, onions, apples and honey. Simmer over low heat until the onions are transparent, stirring gently so the apples retain their shape, about 15 minutes.
• While apples are simmering, combine figs, dates, apricot preserves, and lemon and orange zests and juices in a food processor. Pulse a few times until combined but not puréed. Transfer to a mixing bowl. When the apple mixture is ready, add it to the bowl and stir gently to combine; there may be excess liquid, which will gradually be absorbed into the fruit.
• Spread hazelnuts or almonds and the pistachios on a baking sheet and toast until fragrant and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a kitchen towel and roll the towel gently to remove the skins. Lightly chop the nuts and add to the bowl. Add salt, allspice, cardamom and cinnamon, and fold gently to mix well.
• Cover and refrigerate overnight so flavors meld. Serve cold or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Stir pistachios in heavy medium skillet over medium heat until lightly toasted and fragrant, 4 to 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Combine dates, cherries, apricots, wine, and juice in medium bowl. Let stand 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Mix in honey, lemon juice, orange peel, and spices. Chop pistachios; mix into haroseth. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
• Garnish haroseth with mint sprigs.

Steps:

• Place the apples and walnuts into a large bowl. Mix together the cinnamon and sugar; sprinkle over the apples. Stir in the honey and sweet wine. Serve immediately, or refrigerate until serving.

Steps:

• Combine coconut, almonds and 1 1/2 cups of water. Stir well and cook over medium heat until mixture begins to thicken.
• Stir in all the dried fruits and cinnamon. Continue cooking over medium-low heat, adding additional water as mixture thickens.
• After about 45 minutes stir in the cherry preserves. Cook approximately 15 minutes longer, until the coconut has softened and mixture is extremely thick.
• Cool about 15 minutes and stir in the wine. The mixture should be moist and thick.
• Refrigerate until serving. After the haroseth has been refrigerated it often needs additional wine to remoisten it. Serve at room temperature.
