Our Rose Harissa has a slow-burning chili heat, balanced with a sweet smokiness that adds real depth of flavor to any dish. It is one of our signature ingredients and bestsellers, having been developed from a secret recipe back in 1995. The name Harissa comes from the Arabic harasa, meaning ‘to pound’ or ‘break into pieces'. It is not far from a straight translation of the Italian pestare, to 'pound' or 'crush' - which is where we get the word 'pesto' from.
