Diets This Charoset has made an appearance at my family’s seder table ever since I was little. We always make an Ashkenazic Charoset as well for those who want it. Both are so delicious that most guests request “chetzi chetzi” when my Dad asks which we’d like.

1 cup pitted dates from a vacuum-sealed package
1/2 cup black raisins
1/4 teaspoon Gefen Ground Cinnamon
1/4 – 1/2 cup hot water
In a food processor fitted with a metal blade, puree the dates, raisins, cinnamon, and a quarter cup of the hot water until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, gradually add up to a quarter cup more water until desired consistency is reached.
Refrigerate in an airtight container or jar for up to one week.
