harissa

Spicy (and I mean SPICY) harissa is one of my favorite mix-ins for dressings and marinades, or even as a dollop on your meal when you want a major kick.

My recipe developer, Gretchen, kicked some major ass when she came up with this one. Enjoy!!

9 oz mix of hot red and orange peppers, cleaned and cut in half
