INSTRUCTIONS
Makes about 1 cups
Rae Heiney, chef David Scribner's grandmother, makes this Syrian version of
haroset for the traditional Passover meal.
Combine all the ingredients except the nuts in a saucepan and heat until
the dates absorb the liquid and begin to get mushy, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Remove from heat and mix in nuts. Let cool for several hours to absorb
liquid and ripen flavor. Mash with a fork until the mixture resembles a
thick paste. Spread on matzoh and enjoy.
