Jaroset (Panamanian Halek)
This recipe comes from Rita Sasso, a Panamanian whose roots go back to Spain via Amsterdam and Curaçao, which had a significant Jewish population in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

We have shared recipes ever since, and here is one she gave me with her permission to publish.
