Spicy, Sultry & Award-Winning
BELAZU Ingredient Co.'s Rose Harissa has a slow-burning chilli heat, balanced with sweet smokiness that adds real depth of flavor to any dish. It is one of their signature ingredients and bestsellers, having been developed from a secret recipe back in 1995.
Deep red in color, it is an aromatic, complex, Middle Eastern spice paste, skillfully blended from flavorings including: chili, garlic, and rose petals. In North Africa, harissa is traditionally used to add a piquant kick to stews, soups, and couscous. It also works well stirred into crème fraiche or used in marinades - especially for beef, chicken, and lamb.
BELAZU has been bringing quality ingredients from the Mediterranean to chefs all over the world since 1991. They have also nurtured long-term partnerships with artisanal growers who share the belief that the ingredient is king.

CURATOR'S NOTE:
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.
In addition to using directly onto proteins, vegetables, or grains/legumes, Rose Harissa is a great partner for sauces. Stir into yogurt for a dip or dressing, or stir into a bechamel sauce and layer into your lasagna.
Here are some other uses to try:
- Dollop on eggs or avocado toast
