The Craft

Spice ground
to order.

No jarred paste. No shortcuts. Every batch of harissa starts with dried chili skins, caraway, coriander, and garlic cloves dropped into a stone mortar and worked until the oil runs deep red. The smell alone stops people mid-sentence at markets.

Chef Ines Mansouri grew up watching her grandmother fold msemen at 5 a.m. in a Tunis apartment with no air conditioning and a single gas burner. The recipe hasn't changed. Only the address.

"We had 280 employees at our summer kickoff. The Harissa truck had a line for three straight hours. HR got more compliments on the food than on the venue. We re-booked for Q4 before the truck pulled out."

"We wanted something that wasn't a taco bar or a slider station. Harissa showed up with string lights already on, the smell hit the parking lot before the truck did, and our guests are still talking about the brik."

"In four years running the Prospect Park Food Festival, Harissa has had the longest line every single Saturday. They sell out by 2 p.m. and people come back the next week. That's the whole job."
