1 cup walnut pieces

Directions:

 In a small bowl dissolve the cinnamon in the white wine.  Set aside. 

In a food processor rough chop (pulse) the kumquats with the dates and sugar.  Transfer to a small mixing bowl.  Add the strawberries and walnuts.    Add the cinnamon/white wine to the fruit.  Using a rubber spatula, gently combine. 

Spoon into a serving bowl, cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours, for flavors to blend before serving.

Notes: To prepare the Kumquat Haroset up to one day ahead of time, vary the above instructions by leaving out the strawberries and walnuts until 1 hour before serving. Remove the Haroset from the refrigerator one hour before serving.
