About Harrissa

Harissa is a vibrant, flavor-packed chili paste originating from North African cuisine, particularly Tunisia. It is made from a blend of roasted red peppers, hot chili peppers, garlic, olive oil, and a medley of spices like cumin, coriander, and caraway. Often used as a condiment, marinade, or base for sauces, harissa adds smoky heat and depth to dishes. Nutritionally, harissa is low in calories and fat, with benefits stemming from its antioxidant-rich ingredients such as chili peppers and garlic, which may support heart health and boost immunity. However, its high sodium content should be noted, depending on preparation. Harissa is versatile and can be enjoyed in moderation as a flavorful addition to soups, stews, roasted vegetables, and meats, adding nutritional value while enhancing taste in a healthy, balanced diet.
