Hot sauces

The more probable reasons: spices kill food-borne bacteria that grow faster and better in warmer areas, they are thought to contribute to one’s physical well-being, and they simply make foods taste good. <br /> <br />In North Africa, harissa is a fiery, red chili paste that is a kitchen staple. This is a very easy recipe.
