Harissa La Flamme Du Cap Bon Tunisie 14 oz [380 g]

I have a friend who lives in tunisia. And when he asked me to try harissa.. I found this brand and he said absolutely! And I have brought 3 cans and make everything with it! LOVE IT!

I was not familiar with this sauce. It was in a NY Cooking recipe, soni bought some from Amazon. It works beautifully with honey or maple syrup as a pork glaze. I am now trying it in other things.

The can arrived dented and was therefore unusable. I would have expected to be able to return it, but it is not returnable as it comes from Tunisia.

Phare du Cap Bon is my gold standard. If that's 100, this is 90 to 95. It's maybe a tiny bit inferior, but it's hardly noticeable and it's totally adequate for my couscous. In short, it "tastes like harissa, which most of these pernicious imitations fail to do.You can't make harissa outside of the Levant, imo. It's made of three specific kinds of chili peppers, plus carvi, and it either tastes right or it just doesn't. Imagine some dumbscrotum making a concoction of jalapenoes, red bell peppers, and powdered cayenne pepper and selling that as "chipotle sauce." That's what I mean by "pernicious imitation."

Top notch harissa, superb flavor, and without the strange allspice/cinnamon of other blands, fabulous for concocting several Tunisian dishes. Very hot

I ordered the small and large cans. Both arrived dented. The cans were not dented in shipping. Does Amazon have a protocol that prevents dented cans from being delivered? Seems that’s a hard NO. The harissa is nevertheless edible and tasty. But running the risk of botulism is not fun.

My husband is Tunisian and it's a taste of home for him.

It was outdated and didn’t taste good
