Harissa: Tunisian Powdered Spice

The Harissa is a blend of spicy spices of Tunisian origin but widely used in all Maghreb cuisine. Normally found in stores as harissa sauce, already prepared and sold in jars in ethnic shops or supermarkets worldwide. We prefer to provide it in powder; this way we can guarantee you higher quality, and for you greater creativity in the kitchen. Experiment with a homemade preparation of harissa sauce or add it as a spice to your dishes for a special and fragrant touch!

The tradition of harissa in Tunisia is very important; it is sold in cans, jars, and tubes everywhere, so much so that harissa is defined as the ‘main condiment of Tunisia’ or ‘the hallmark of Tunisian fish and meat dishes’.

Harissa: Original Recipe… in Powder!

Harissa is a spicy sauce whose main ingredients are red chili, garlic, and spices and herbs mixed in a paste. The harissa recipe is ancient and varies in preparation from home to home, with the addition of other ingredients.

Harissa powder will allow you to experiment, creating personal recipes and adjusting the flavors according to your taste. To the original harissa recipe in Arab cuisine, lemon and fermented onions are often added to balance the spiciness with a more acidic taste. The ingredients of Terzaluna’s harissa are: cayenne pepper, cumin, garlic, salt, paprika, coriander. Terza Luna’s Harissa blend is spicy but not too much: if you prefer it spicier, you can add crushed cayenne pepper.

How to Use Harissa?

Harissa sauce is one of the most used throughout the Middle East as an accompaniment to various dishes. You can choose to serve it on its own in a bowl, or add it directly to salads, meats, and soups. Its unique flavor will give a wonderful oriental touch to your dishes. This spice blend can be used to give a hint of harissa to couscous, in a spicy preparation, replace ras el hanout inside tagines, or used to prepare a harissa hummus, making the typical chickpea and sesame cream spicy. In a more Western preparation, it can be experimented as a seasoning in making harissa pasta.

In Tunisia, harissa is used as an ingredient in meat and fish stews, as a flavor enhancer, and is also used to prepare lablabi, a chickpea soup usually eaten for breakfast.

Harissa, spice or sauce, is indeed one of the cornerstones of North African cuisine.
