Don't Sleep On Harissa, The North African Chile Paste That Will Level Up Your Cooking

When you come across a recipe like Rosy Harissa Chicken that looks incredibly delicious, you may find yourself with a few burning questions: What exactly is harissa? What does it taste like? And can I find it easily? Luckily there are easy answers. Harissa, a smoky chile paste that is used widely in North African and Middle Eastern cuisines, is gaining popularity among home cooks. One of the most attractive things about harissa is its versatility. It can be used as a seasoning for roasted meat and vegetables, serve as a condiment swirled into yogurt or alongside a tagine, and is a delicious flavor booster for bean, rice and pasta dishes. Here's how to use it.

What is harissa? Harissa is a peppery, garlicky, and smoky chile paste or sauce that originated from Tunisia and is widely used in North Africa. It can have moderate to spicy heat depending on the chiles used and has a multitude of uses. Spread the paste over meat before roasting, or use it to season salmon for a quick but boldly flavored weeknight dinner. Harissa also adds a boost of chile flavor and heat when simply stirred into bowls of cooked rice, couscous, pasta, and beans.  Where can you find harissa? Harrisa is available at specialty markets and standard grocery stores, and is available online. You can find the paste sold in a squeeze tube, in a jar, or small can (similar to the size of a small can of tomato paste). You can also find harissa as a dry, ground seasoning blend. For recipes that call for harissa paste opt for a tube or can. Some recipes will employ a dry harissa seasoning blend that you can make from scratch as in this Peel-and-Eat Grilled Shrimp with Harissa or you can purchase a premade in the spice section of the grocery store. Can you make harissa from scratch? Homemade harissa isn't hard to prepare. In Tunisia, where harissa is an integral part of the cuisine and food traditions, harissa recipes and ingredients will vary from region. It is  generally made by grinding sun-dried chile peppers with garlic, salt, and spices such as coriander and cumin. How should I use harissa? We use harissa in all kinds of recipes. Here are some of our favorite ways to cook with harissa. 1. Add a dollop of harissa paste to  a meat sauce like this Spicy Harissa Ragù. The warm spice of the paste adds depth to the sauce. 2. Stir harissa paste or or ground harissa seasoning to taste into melted butter and drizzle it over popcorn. Or make a compound butter with harissa and drop a pat onto your favorite steak 3. Upgrade roasted butternut squash: this recipefeatures a homemade harissa paste that's simply tossed with the vegetable and roasted. 4. Make a North African take on skillet lasagna  with lamb and harissa. 5. Give salads a spicy kick: whisk a spoonful of harissa into ranch dressing and serve with chicken wings or crudite. 6. Give deviled eggs a lift by stirring harissa into the yolk mixture.  7. Make Çilbir — a lovely Turkish yogurt and egg dish topped with harissa crisp. 8. Add spice and heat to mashed potatoes to liven up a big meal.

    Want to trade in your Canada Goose coat? Luxury brand brings resale program up north - Global News

    Image
    Your next Canada Goose coat might be on its second life by the time it gets to you. The Toronto-based, luxury apparel company announced Thursday that it is bringing Generations, a platform allowing consumers to shop for and trade in pre-loved pieces from the brand, to Canada. Pieces available for trade-in or purchase through Generations will range from the company's popular parkas and outdoor vests to snowsuits, snow pants, trench coats and even fleece and knitwear. The program is being launched to further Canada Goose's commitment to sustainability but also cater to the growing number of people seeking second-hand goods, Carrie Baker, the company's president, said. "The resale market is growing like crazy, even faster than just regular commerce, and for us, it really taps into our target demographic," she said. Baker has seen statistics suggesting 80 per cent of consumers under the age of 30 shop for pre-loved goods, but interest in purchasing sec...

    Letters: Both parties can lay claim to 'woke-ness' - The Florida Times-Union

    Florida Times-Union Regarding Mark Woods' column of April 27, he should certainly question the wisdom of challenging Disney's power for choosing a side in a political debate. But I'm guessing Disney knows that for every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction. So, they got a reaction.  DeSantis wants to punish Disney to stir up his base. Bernie Sanders wants to punish Amazon to stir up his base. Elizabeth Warren wants to eliminate federal student loan payments to stir up her base and prompt Democratic turnout at the midterms. This is what we get with crass gutlessness disguised as politicians — actions and reactions.  But for the sake of inclusion, Mr. Woods should keep in mind that stirring up bases with gutlessness is, in fact, pretty bipartisan. For the sake of clarity, it would be nice if he pointed out that "woke" might not really have much to do with policy, but with the sanctimonious certainty that one side is doing th...
