Schmutz transforms haroset—the sweet, textured paste made from fruits, nuts, and spices traditionally served during the Passover Seder—into a condiment that's ready to be savored every day.
This crunchy spread is ready to enjoy in flavors like Apple Walnut Haroset, which Schmutz describes as "apple pie in a jar." The reinvented gluten-free and certified Kosher condiment features apple puree as the first ingredient, followed by a few other simple additions like walnuts, dates, apples, lemon juice, vanilla, spices, and salt.
As part of its Everyday Haroset Sampler Pack, Schmutz pairs Apple Walnut with a sold-out Fig Hazelnut flavor. Both of these varieties can be enjoyed in a myriad of ways, whether they're scooped straight from the jar, swirled into oatmeal, or spread over toast.
