Now take a kezayit (the volume of one olive) of the maror. Dip it into the Charoset mixture, but not so much that the bitter taste is neutralized. Recite the following blessing and then eat the maror (without reclining): A final taste of Egypt by which we remember our Exodus.

Baruch atah Adonai Eloheinu melech ha-olam, asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotav v'tzivanu al achilat maror.

Blessed are you, Adonai, our God, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with Your commandments and commanded us to eat the bitter herbs.
