Harissa: The Essential North African Spice You Need

pizza time

On Moroccan-style Frena buns, pizza sauce, red onions, pepperoni cut into different sizes for variety, and hot peppers.

The top right 3 have diced red onion in the pizza sauce, the bottom L pizzas have longer onion slices. To be honest the true best method maybe somewhere in the middle, some diced onions in the sauce and some slices on the cheese level.

The hot peppers I put 4ish slices on each bun, but they might be over powering? But they're cooling off and I got YouTube open and beers in the fridge, time to be fat and Happy on a Saturday.

Ah fuck, I forgot the Pineapple.

Hi! Morrocan mint tea anon here.

I’m not Morrocan myself, but due to family relationships my dad spent a lot of time with his little brother’s Moroccan family, and brought me along, so I grew up with a lot of Moroccan food as a child, including Moroccan mint tea.

I’m sorry if I was weird about it! I’ll try and keep my eye on these kinds of things in the future. I noticed you were talking about Morocco in your last post, and made the comment. I’ll do a better job of not making unnecessary comments in the future. I’m truly sorry if I made you uncomfortable!

It is very common for racialised people to be approached and addressed specifically and immediately on the topic of food—upon being told, guessing, or otherwise extracting information about my ethnicity from me, the #1 comment a (usually) white person will usually give me is about how much they love Moroccan food (the #2 comment is about how their mother's bassoon teacher's dog's vet's sister was from Iraq or something, lmao)—I recall reading on a white woman's cooking blog's recipe for warqa dough that she had gotten the recipe by seeing a woman at a park, guessing that she was Moroccan, chasing her down, and immediately demanding to be taught how to make it.

This is, like I said, a very common trope, and it's tiring and uncomfortable in the same way that anything that is repeated often is uncomfortable—but especially so since food is literally something you consume—a culture with which someone associates you (thus, in a way, you) is being reflected back at you through their eyes as symbol, destination, thing, object of desire, but never "structure," anything with depth or life of its own. This sort of thing puts me in mind of the Orientalist project (which, in fact, originated in North Africa)—create a curiosity for a culture, present it as a series of curios, things to be experienced, foods to be eaten, décor to be purchased, all in a way that reinforces the right of the coloniser both to extract material value from the nations it imperialises but also to present that culture to his or her own nation, or even to itself—to say what the culture is "like," which objects the culture consists in (so that these objects, and the labour required to mine, forage, harvest, and/or craft them, can be forcibly extracted from the colonised or imperialised country, and demand for these objects can be created in the colonial 'centre')—that is to say, to present a culture or shoved-together group of cultures as nothing more than a series or collection of objects or vignettes.

I also find it odd that, not only did you immediately associate Morocco with this object and need to tell me about it upon learning that I was Moroccan (and really, what am I meant to say in response?)—you also, assuming you learnt this information to-day, found it out as a result of racist and Islamophobic harassment being directed against me due to my ethnicity—and then, rather than commenting on or denouncing said racist harassment or just, like, continuing to scroll, you made a comment about food...... perhaps you didn't see the series of asks I got from this person (just to-day, though there were others a few months ago, and there were more in my inbox that I just simply deleted), but you can see why this gives me pause.

I really don't mean to berate you btw—I appreciate your apology & wouldn't bother explaining any of this if I didn't think you were being genuine

for the ask game! :]

what's their accent? do they have "home" skills (like sewing) and what are they? + whats their favorite flavor or dish?

(Answering about Rowan coz you specified in another ask :) )

For the accent, its funny because most of my OCs do have accents as we assign them nationalities and origins for our Modern AU, or the equivalents in-game(Sigurd/Wanderer is German, Mikh is Morrocan/Indian, etc). Rowan is...not specified in that AU. In canon he's from Ustalav, which is the Pathfinder version of Transylvania, so... I suppose one could say he has Vampire Accent™

He is VERY handy at home, and he's a househusband every time he's between jobs and he loves it! He's not... great with fine motor skills like sewing and his cooking is mid but you can tell he puts a lot of love into it. He's better at fixing stuff, construction work, and making sure his wife doesn't forget anything before going off to work (that happens like. Two times a day).

And maybe it's the Tiefling heritage but he loves spicy and salty food. There's nothing short of fire from the planes of hell that he would consider to be "too spicy"

Couscous that slaps

So preface

I don't usually prefer the rounder morrocan couscous I really prefer the tiny sand like grains of Israeli couscous esp with a poached egg on top or with shakshuka but this needs the size of the pearled couscous.

You need some Almonds

A chicken bouillon cubes

The couscous

Onion, garlic powder

Black pepper

And to be fancy Saffron

If you aren't making the fancy Glaze separate add a dash of lemon/lime juice and pomegranate with some honey

Plus disregard for measurements and a soul to judge your portions with.

Roughly chop up those almonds, not that fine silvered nonsense, we want some crunch

Toast those in a pan on med-low with your couscous, tossing often so nothing burns and you feel fancy like a chef

When toasted throw in the chicken cube, your oil of choice (I highly rec butter or duck fat for that Richness), onion/garlic powder, pepper and a few saffron threads-like 3-4

Toss those up in the melted oil for a quick second

Panic as you forgot to get the water (don't use stock if you're using a bullion cube and vice versa) get the water enough to cover the couscous by like half an inch. Eyeball it

Simmer until fully cooked, you want those almonds to get a bit stewed.

Serve couscous hot

Delicious

Or mix in Fancy glaze to be described in the next post

Decided to cook tonight so I made morrocan style lamb, garlic and fetta filo rolls with roasted vegetable couscous served with a homemade harissa yoghurt sauce and a garnish of fresh pomegranate finished off with a glass of sangria.
