Green Harissa Recipe

I love adding harissa to stews, marinades and salad dressings. A little bit goes a long way in spicing up a dish. For a quick sauce, I like to mix a few teaspoons into yogurt or mayonnaise. It dresses up meats, vegetables, and sandwiches instantly.

Green harissa is lighter and tastes fresher and more herbaceous. Red harissa is wonderful too. I think I love both pretty equally. Try them and let me know which you like better. I’d love to know.
