Description

Traditionally used in North African and the Middle Eastern cuisine, Harissa is a condiment which is made from dried hot chili peppers, garlic, toasted caraway, toasted coriander, and toasted cumin, pounded into a paste with olive oil. We use Ultra Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil and a copious amount of peppers to make our infused olive oil very spicy, and one of the hottest in our collection.  Drizzle onto pasta and pizza for a spicy kick, or use in place of regular olive oil in hummus.  Pairs well with Mango white balsamic, Cinnamon Pear dark balsamic, traditional dark balsamic, or Sicilian Lemon white balsamic.

All Natural. No artificial flavours, colours or additional ingredients.

Ways to Use Harissa Infused Olive Oil

Drizzle Harissa Infused Olive Oil over pasta and pizza when a spicy kick is welcome. Swap it in for regular olive oil when making hummus for a smoky, hot finish. Because it ranks among the hottest oils in the collection, a small amount goes a long way. Harissa Infused Olive Oil is one of several infused oils in the range; see how fused and infused olive oils differ for the distinction between the two styles.

Building Bolder Dips and Spreads

Home cooks who already turn to Harissa Infused Olive Oil for hummus can apply the same substitution to other dips and spreads that call for olive oil. Adding it in small amounts lets the chili and toasted spice character come through without overwhelming the dish. You can also explore the flavoured olive oil range for other infused options to rotate alongside it.

Quick Ways to Add Harissa Infused Olive Oil

  • Finish a bowl of pasta with a drizzle just before serving.
  • Brush over pizza dough for extra heat before or after baking.
  • Blend into hummus in place of standard olive oil.

Pairing Harissa Infused Olive Oil with Balsamic Vinegar

Harissa Infused Olive Oil pairs well with Mango White Balsamic, Cinnamon Pear Dark Balsamic, Traditional Dark Balsamic, and Sicilian Lemon White Balsamic. The sweetness in Mango White Balsamic and Cinnamon Pear Dark Balsamic offsets the heat of the chili peppers, giving the pairing balance instead of straight heat. Sicilian Lemon White Balsamic works differently, bringing acidity that cuts through the richness of the oil.

Building a Dipping Plate

Pour Harissa Infused Olive Oil and Traditional Dark Balsamic into separate sides of a dipping plate for bread service. The deep, aged character of Traditional Dark Balsamic gives the chili heat something substantial to sit against. For more combinations, explore oil and balsamic pairing ideas.

Who Harissa Infused Olive Oil Suits

Harissa Infused Olive Oil suits home cooks who already enjoy bold, spicy food and want that heat available as a pantry staple rather than a specialty jar. Because it ranks among the hottest oils in the collection, it fits households that reach for chili and hot sauce regularly.

Choosing a Size

  • The 200ml size suits a first try of Harissa Infused Olive Oil or a small gift.
  • The 375ml size fits a household that cooks with it on a regular basis.
  • The 750ml size suits a kitchen that goes through it quickly or wants a spare bottle on hand.

Common Questions About Harissa Infused Olive Oil

What does Harissa Infused Olive Oil taste like?

Harissa Infused Olive Oil carries the heat of dried chili peppers along with garlic, toasted caraway, toasted coriander, and toasted cumin pounded into the base oil. It ranks among the hottest oils in the collection, so a small amount adds noticeable spice. The peppers come through first, followed by the toasted, earthy spice notes.

Can Harissa Infused Olive Oil replace regular olive oil in recipes?

Yes, Harissa Infused Olive Oil can replace regular olive oil in recipes such as hummus, adding a spicy kick in place of a neutral base. It also works drizzled over pasta and pizza rather than stirred through the whole dish. Start with a smaller amount than a standard olive oil recipe calls for, given the heat level.

What balsamic vinegars pair with Harissa Infused Olive Oil?

Mango White Balsamic, Cinnamon Pear Dark Balsamic, Traditional Dark Balsamic, and Sicilian Lemon White Balsamic all pair with Harissa Infused Olive Oil. The sweeter balsamics balance the chili heat, while Sicilian Lemon White Balsamic adds acidity instead. Serving the oil and a balsamic together on a dipping plate is one way to use the pairing.

What sizes does Harissa Infused Olive Oil come in?

Harissa Infused Olive Oil comes in 200ml, 375ml, and 750ml sizes. The 200ml size suits a first try, while the 375ml and 750ml sizes suit a household that uses it regularly.
