PROVENçAL HAROSETH FOR PASSOVER



Provençal Haroseth for Passover image

This is a 13th-century haroseth recipe from Provence, using the Mediterranean fruits and nuts that are still available in the region. Back then, Jewish families would have saved chestnuts from the fall harvest and roasted or boiled them for this springtime Passover recipe - and then laboriously peeled them by hand - but now you can buy cooked, pre-peeled chestnuts any time.

NIGELLA LAWSON'S HAROSET FROM THE VENETIAN GHETTO



Nigella Lawson's Haroset from the Venetian Ghetto image

Haroset, a sweet fruit and nut paste, is a crucial component of the Seder plate. Nigella Lawson's sumptuous, Venetian-style haroset is made with chestnuts, pine nuts, various dried fruits, and plenty of spices.

Dried Fruit, Nut

Steps:

  • Crumble the chestnuts into a pan, and add the sultanas. Then chop, or cut up roughly using scissors, letting them drop into the pan as you go, the dried figs, dates and apri­cots. Quarter, core and then roughly chop the apple (I don't bother to peel it), and add along with the rest of the ingredients. These look beautiful before they merge in the heat, as you can see to the right. Stir well, bring to the boil and then lower the heat, partially cover, and cook for 1 -1½ hours, until everything coheres in a dense sticky mass. Pack into a jar or jars.

Haroseth With Chestnuts, Pine Nuts, Pears and Dried Fruits image

Haroseth was served for Passover at Seders in Roman times, if not earlier, and versions exist all over the world, adapted for the fruits and nuts available. This recipe from Italy contains no spices, relying instead on a vibrant mix of fresh and dried fruit for flavor - so use the ripest and sweetest you can find.

HAROSETH



Haroseth image

This recipe, adapted from Alon Shaya of Domenica Restaurant, an Italian restaurant in New Orleans, plays on traditional haroseth. Moscato wine takes the place of Manischewitz, and hazelnuts for almonds. A spin on a recipe from Mr. Shaya's mother, Joan Nathan brought it to The Times in 2011.

Categories     easy, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/3 cup white wine vinegar (kosher for Passover, if preferred)
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup Moscato d'Asti wine or sweet kosher wine
1/3 cup onions, cut into 1/2-inch dice
3 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1/4 cup honey
1 cup dried figs (about 8), hard stems removed, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 cup pitted dates, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1/4 cup good-quality apricot preserves
Finely grated zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
Finely grated zest and juice of 1/2 orange
1/2 cup whole shelled hazelnuts or blanched almonds
1/2 cup shelled pistachios
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice, or to taste
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom, or to taste
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon, or to taste

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium saucepan, combine vinegar, sugar, wine, onions, apples and honey. Simmer over low heat until the onions are transparent, stirring gently so the apples retain their shape, about 15 minutes.
  • While apples are simmering, combine figs, dates, apricot preserves, and lemon and orange zests and juices in a food processor. Pulse a few times until combined but not puréed. Transfer to a mixing bowl. When the apple mixture is ready, add it to the bowl and stir gently to combine; there may be excess liquid, which will gradually be absorbed into the fruit.
  • Spread hazelnuts or almonds and the pistachios on a baking sheet and toast until fragrant and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a kitchen towel and roll the towel gently to remove the skins. Lightly chop the nuts and add to the bowl. Add salt, allspice, cardamom and cinnamon, and fold gently to mix well.
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight so flavors meld. Serve cold or at room temperature.
