Last-day-of-Passover Charoses
You can tell that I'm really on top of things when I post the recipe for my favorite charoses on the last day of Passover. Well, keep it in mind for next year, I guess.
Charoses (sometimes called charoset) is one of my favorite things about Passover. It's made for the seders as a symbol of the mortar the Jews in Egypt used to build stuff for the Pharaoh, and is traditional to eat throughout the holiday. I don't make it out of season, as I don't think it would be right - I'm all purist masochistic like that. I usually end up making at least 2 batches of it because Ben and I will go through a big bowl in 3-4 days. You can put charoses on matzah for a lovely snack (see below), eat it with veggies, or just spoon it into your mouth. I <3 it.
