Traditional Harissa Variety Pack

100% WHOLE SUN-DRIED CHILI PASTE

Also known as ‘harissa arbi’ or ‘diari’ in modern Tunisian vernacular, traditional harissa is a staple found on the table and in everyday cookery. It is not a watery sauce but rather a thick, sun-dried chili paste bursting with flavor.

Includes 3 versions of Traditional Harissa:

• Mild: all the harissa flavor without the heat

• Smoky: a deep level of smokiness complemented by a little heat

• Spicy: a delicious, classic Tunisian punch of heat

    The term ‘harissa’ comes from the Arabic word ‘harassa’, which means ‘to pound’ or ‘to crush’. Traditional harissa was originally produced by the descendents of the Andalusian Jews and Muslims persecuted from Christian Spain towards the end of the 16th century who fled to various areas throughout Northern Tunisia; from Tunis to Testour to Grombalia. The custom of preparing and using harissa subsequently evolved from the Tunisian Cape Bon region and spread in all directions from northern Tunisia all the way to Constantine (present day eastern Algeria) and Tripolitania (present day western Libya). The art of making and using traditional harissa is practiced by artisans of the Tunisian diaspora to this day, a testament to its integrality in Tunisian history, culture, and identity.

    HARISSA LOVERS HAVE SPOKEN

    FAQs

    - Our Mild Harissa is not spicy at all. It's all the harissa flavor without the heat.

    - Our Smoky Harissa is slightly spicy. It has a deep level of smokiness that makes it a fan favorite among those that can handle a little heat.

    - Our Spicy Harissa is the classic version. Traditional harissa is typically hot so this one definitely packs a punch of heat. We like to think of it as having a balanced level of heat; it’s not meant to overwhelm your palate but it is definitely there and will linger a bit. If you love spiciness, it will keep you coming back for more.
