Product Description

Harissa is a classic table accompaniment in Moroccan cooking and at the Moroccan table. Mustapha's Harissa is the gold standard and nothing sold in here in the USA can really compare. Made mainly from Moroccan hot red chiles, red bell pepper, olive oil, a touch of tomato, oil, salt and spices. It is an essential accompaniment at the Moroccan table, and almost as ubiquitous as olives. Mustapha's harissa is served alongside couscous and tagines, it has an unforgettably intense, slow burn that will spice up any dish - each diner can stir it into the accompanying dish to suit personal taste. Its relatively salty quality takes to lifting the flavors of milder foods such as couscous. You can serve tiny dabs of harissa as a side sauce for grilled and roast meats and poultry, or use it as a general flavor booster for stews, soups and sauces. If you're looking to create an authentic Moroccan meal, this is an accompaniment.

If you like hot sauce, you'll like this harissa. This harissa is salty and hot, with a roasted pepper taste to it. Very good to use as an ingredient in Moroccan cooking or as a condiment. My spouse is from Morocco and says this is an authentic tasting harissa. A staple in my house! We love it on chicken and sandwiches, especially.

This is a great harissa!!! Very flavorful. I developed my love of harissa in France and this rivals any I've tried. This is much better than the tube variety. It's perfect!

I just bought this at Sur La Table. I love all spicy sauces and I had heard of harissa but never tried it. I don't have anything to compare it to, so I'll just rate it on it's own merits. Mustapha's Harissa is flavorful, fresh-tasting, and packs a bite. It's a great condiment for soups, egg dishes and meats. So far. I'm sure I'll be trying it with more kinds of foods in the coming days. Chili-heads - heads-up on this new spicy find.
