THE ESSENTIAL HARISSA
Ever since visiting Morocco as a teen, I've had a craving for this awesome condiment. This is a wonderful version and it tastes pretty darned authentic! It is delicious with tagines and couscous, or can be added to salad dressings, marinades and pasta sauces. From "The Essential Mediterranean" cookbook.
