Product Description
Only the freshest ingredients go into Zamouri's Harissa!
Zamouri Spices proudly presents our own authentic Harissa - Moroccan Chili Paste. We have created our own special blend of fresh roasted peppers picked at their peak to bring you an outstanding Harissa
Harissa, with its intense slow burn, is an excellent accompanyment to couscous and tagines. It pairs well with all meats - chicken, beef and lamb - for grilling or roasting. Soups and stews are given a little kick up in flavor by adding as little as a teaspoon.
Use in your favorite recipe or as a hot sauce to spice up your favorite foods (such as scrambled eggs).

I have enjoyed Moroccan food for many years and have recently received a tagine pot for Christmas. As I started to build a Moroccan pantry I knew that there were a few item that were essential. This included preserved lemons, Ras el Hanout spice blend and a Harissa paste. I found this one on Amazon and even though it seemed a little pricey I ordered a couple of jars. Here is my take on it:
Zamouri's Harissa Chili Paste has an obvious red pepper flavor and is medium low to medium heat (depending on your taste). Although the peppers are not identified on the label I am guessing New Mexican red and cayenne (this product is made in the US, by the way). Still, the chilies are not overwhelming and several exotic flavors come through. The first thing that I tasted was cumin although it is not specifically mentioned on the label. Here are the listed ingredients:
Fresh Chili Peppers, Crushed Red Peppers, Salt, Preserved Lemons, Garlic, Paprika, Olive Oil, Vinegar, Water, and other spices.
I have to be honest and say that I am certain that when I visit a African grocery store I will be able to find a similar blend at a fraction of the price. However, if that is not an option for you this blend is authentic and very, very flavorful.

This harissa is pretty good. But it is way behind Mustapha's harrisa in terms of flavor. But right now, you cant seem to get Mustapha's online. So this is definitely the next best option.

This is my first time with Moroccan spices. I had this recipe I wanted to try which called for Harissa paste, so I ordered a jar. I cannot compare this brand to others, since it is the only one I have tried, but the results were excellent. I have since used it to spice up beef tenderloins, again, yummy..... I don't think I need to shop around for any other brands on the market, since I am completely satisfied with this one..

addicted to this!
I use this stuff on and in so many things. If you like hot stuff you'll love the different subtle nuanced taste of this.

In my opinion, this is nowhere near as good as the Mustapha harissa.
This harissa has harsh heat without the complexity of Mustapha's product. I realize that many harissas are all about heat and little more. Read more

I wanted to like it
but this harissa paste shouldn't even bear the Moroccan name. This is absolutely nothing like any harissa I tasted in any part of Morocco. Read more

Harissa paste
Not what I had hoped for, the brand I normally use is currently not available. I took a chance on this brand. It's ok.

Leaked, wet packaging and wet box. Open jar!
The lid was loose on the jar, the packaging was full of wet paste. The box was also wet with leaked paste. Read more

This stuff is fabulous! I have ordered several spices from these folks on Amazon, and couldn't be happier! Each transaction has been perfect.

Not Pleased
Wasn't pleased with this harissa sauce. It's very bitter and doesn't have the bold flavor I was looking for. Tried it once with a moroccan chicken dish and I haven't used it since. Read more
