Charoset for Passover

The spellings and pronunciations for charoset, the mixture of apples, nuts, and wine eaten during Passover, vary widely. The correct Hebrew pronunciation is ha-RO-set, but you'll hear "harosets," "haroseth," and "haroses," pretty frequently. It's often a favorite at the seder, for sure. Charoset is also a key ingredient in the (in)famous Hillel sandwich, which is a uniquely Jewish concoction of matzah, horseradish, and the aforementioned apple salad. I think it's delicious but it's not for everyone. Everybody has a different recipe, but this is what I use.
