View the previous or next recipe for this meal.

Dried fruit and nuts come together for a sweet spread that is ideal for passover, but also serves as a simple condiment on a variety of breakfast goods. Mix up the dried fruits using more or less figs & apricots or substitute raisins or dates. Find a Kosher concord grape wine if using this for passover. Simply use juice to make it more kid friendly.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup dried fig, trimmed of stems
  • ½ cup apricot, dried
  • ½ cup red wine, ideally sweet & kosher, juice can also be used
  • ½ cup walnuts, or almonds
  • 3 tablespoons candied ginger, minced
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 orange, zest, optional

Serving Size: 4 People



 

Preparation Instructions

Soak the dried fruit in the red wine for just a few minutes while preparing the other items. Place it all in a food processor with the nuts, candied ginger, salt, orange zest, if using and the juice. Pulse until mashed evenly.
