Villa Jerada’s Harissa No. 1 is our favorite version of this North African red pepper paste for its bright, complex flavor. While many store-bought varieties have a one-dimensional spicy flavor, this harissa layers acidity and fruitiness with preserved lemons, a touch of vinegar and tomato paste for a lively, tangy condiment. Villa Jerada uses just enough high-quality Moroccan olive oil to make the harissa spreadable and smooth without diluting its flavor, as opposed to conventional brands that contain a high proportion of water and vegetable oil.

Dried chili peppers, water, olive oil, cumin, coriander, garlic powder, preserved lemons, mint, caraway seed, tomato paste, vinegar, salt

Net weight: 6 oz.

Place of origin: Morocco

If you like hot sauce with your breakfast eggs, try a dollop of harissa one morning-- you won't regret it.

Originating in Tunisia before catching on in Libya, Algeria, Morocco and eventually the rest of the world, harissa is made with dried chilies, tomato or roasted pepper and a blend of spices that varies depending on who's making it.

Moroccan-born Mehdi Boujrada, founder of Villa Jerada, based this product on his mother’s recipe; in addition to a spicy kick, the harissa balances smoky cumin and fresh mint for a complex sauce.
