Charosets Grandpa's Recipe
This is a recipe for charosets, a traditional food on the passover seder plate. who knows how this recipe came to be--my grandfather's family was from russia, but the ingredients have a distinctly sephardic tone. many who swear they hate charosets love this recipe, and it also helps counteract certain properties of matzah ;) i hope you enjoy it as much as we do--it is a great family activity to make it, as the chopping part takes forever. we always make a double recipe because everyone wants enough to take home to eat during the holiday week. i'm totally guessing on the prep time. we make an evening of it.
Steps

Use a food processor to chop the other fruits and nuts.
