Ashkenazi haroset differs from its counterparts in that it typically is chunkier and looser in texture, rather than a mixture that gets blended or pounded into a fine paste. It also typically consists of chopped apples and walnuts (or almonds), without dried fruit included. Sweet wine is typically used for soaking, cinnamon is included for spice, and sometimes you might find the addition of orange or lemon juice, too, for extra flavor.
