NYS grown apples!

Ashkenazic: rich layer of walnuts, raisins, grape juice and cinnamon!

Sephardic: delicious layer of almonds, sunflower seeds, apricots & dates

David's latest healthy food invention! (well, I can't say I invented Charoset, that's for sure!)

This is a delicious snack! Enjoy a Passover-style treat year round, even on the go! No sugar added! Walnuts are a great source of omega-3! Almonds are a great source of fiber and vitamin E!

Inspired by my Jewish roots and my affinity for walnuts, which are a great source of the omega-3 fatty acid: alpha-linolenic acid, which is good for the heart, circulatory system, brain, skin, and all cells of the body, I realized after enjoying apples coated in walnuts and cinnamon, that I was very close to making charoset!

So I did a small batch adding raisins and red wine! It came out amazing! And it's shelf stable, so you don't have to refrigerate it! Come wander on over to the farmers market for a free taste!

Food Scientist David's Ashkenazic charoset apple chips introduced in June 2023 and Sephardic charoset introduced in August 2023. L'chaim!

 

What is Charoset? (Not pronounced "ch" as in chess, but pronounced "ch" as in chutzpah" although some folks say charoses or haroset.)

The word is derived from the Hebrew word for clay ("cheres")

Charoset is a fruit and nut chopped mix, symbolizing the mortar and brick used in construction of structures during enslavement in Egypt, prior to being freed by the prophet, Moses.

Charoset is not cooked, typically, and it has to be refrigerated. However, I dehydrate the ingredients, so my charoset can be eaten anytime! (and on the go, kinda like matzah!)
