Parutherum (jaroseth)

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

~-Jewish, Cochin 1/2 lb Dark raisins 1/2 lb Date paste 1/4 c Almonds,
blanched 2 tb Sesame seeds 1 c Sugar 1/4 c Wine vinegar 1/4 ts Salt 1
c Water  Into a processor, put all of the ingredients and process
together  into a smooth paste.  Put the paste in a pan and simmer over
very low  heat for 1/2 hour. Cool.  Serve at room temperature with
matzoh at the Passover Seders.  NOTE:  The date paste, for those who
cannot find it already prepared,  is nothing more than seedless dates
ground to a paste with the  smallest amount of water. I suggest 1/2
pound of dates and 3  tablespoons of water, processed together to
smoothness.  A sweet and pungent jaroseth is unusual since other
cultures do not  use vinegar and therefore lacks pungency.  Nutritional
