Oooh, charoset. If there’s leftovers, I recommend having it with vanilla ice cream!
I need to figure out what to replace walnuts with still, nothing I’ve tried works like a nice tree nut.
This one is gonna have apples, pears, figs, dates, black and gold raisins, walnuts, almonds, pistachios, cinnamon, wine, honey and rosewater. In dices. So like a mishmash of Ashkenazi and Persian charoset.
And yesss it goes well with dairy in general. I usually have leftovers for breakfast with a splash of cream.
Ooo very fancy! Mine are usually very simple, apples, dates or raisins, walnuts when we could have them, cinnamon, grape fruit juice because alcohol, honey, sometimes a splash of vanilla. All diced as well!
I’ve never made charoset but often find pumpkin seeds a nice replacement for tree nuts in other recipes.
We tried with sunflower seeds, they just don’t have the crunch! They did help though.
That’s tough. I feel like corn nuts would be too crunchy.
