HARISSA LA FLAME DU CAP BON


I have always really liked this product, the package, the colors, the size. But this is a great Harissa product. To be used with caution as this Tunisian chili pepper paste carries a nice bite. Harissa can be found at most supermarkets, but this one is a classic, since it is a good basic introduction and worth the purchase. Though many recipes vary from different location, this spicy North African staple is often found close by and great on almost any variety and combination of foods. I prefer it as a condiment but it is great as a grilling paste and as an addition to couscous. Best made with dried chilies as their flavor is more complex than fresh ones. Grind in a mortar and pestle into a thick paste the following: Dried Chilies, garlic, cumin, coriander / caraway seeds, paprika, salt.
