The Jewish food maven Joan Nathan serves this haroseth at her family's Passover gatherings. More than any other Jewish dish, this sweet blend of fruit and nuts - a mixture that symbolizes the mortar with which the Israelites laid bricks during their enslavement in Egypt - varies wildly depending on the availability of ingredients. The Nathan family version resembles a Moroccan haroseth rather than the popular American version made with apples, nuts and sweet wine.

Steps:
- Grind the raisins and 1 1/2 cups of the almonds together in a meat grinder (see tip). Set aside in a bowl.
- Grate the apple into the raisins and almonds and add the cinnamon. Mix well to combine.
- Using your hands, press the mixture into 1-inch balls. Using the remaining almonds, press 1 into each haroseth. There will be lots of haroseth left over; serve in bowls at the table during Passover.
