Join the Rina Kurland Sisterhood Book Club as they review the book The Netanyahus by Joshua Cohen.

During the Seder meal held on Passover, a sweet paste made of fruit, nuts, and wine is served as integral part of the Seder plate to represent the mortar used by our enslaved ancestors in building the pyramids in Egypt. While the Ashkenazi or Eastern European Jewish style of charoset traditionally combines chopped apples, walnuts, and kosher wine into a salad-like mixture, the Sephardic Jews of the Mediterranean and Judeo-Arabic communities of the Middle East will more often use a combination of dried fruit such as dates or raisins, to create a thick paste.
