Passover Charoses

This is the recipe for Charoses, as mentioned on Nosheteria. It is adapted a bit from the original recipe which is by Vi Wernick circa 1974. The recipe comes from one of those spiral bound community cookbooks; a true through-back from the not so distant past. I usually double the recipe. Thanks Vi.

1 cup finely chopped apple, a mix of sweet and tart
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
2 teaspoons honey
grated zest of 1/2 lemon
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoon red wine (approximately)

Mix all of the ingredients. Add enough wine to bind the mixture. Charoses can be served immediately, or hold in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Hi Nosheteria,
I'd like to reprint your charoset recipe in a magazine article. May I have permission to do that? For more info, email me at mindy@worldjewishdigest.com and I'll explain.

Thanks so much.

If your charoses recipe is based on one in a Florida community cookbook, your Vi Wernick has been giving out "celestial" recipes since 1976. However, I'm sure her family would be happy to know that she's helped pass along a Passover culinary tradition. Thanks, Linda
