MUSTARDS & HARISSA

MUSTARDS    available in 2.5 kg tubs

Mustards have been used since early Roman days, originally to mask and disguise the flavour and taste of foods. Now however, it takes pride of place in our condiments pantry and is used not only as a flavouring on its own, but also to add taste to sauces, relishes, mayonnaise, vinaigrettes and casseroles. Handmade mustards mellow with age, and there’s no better way to add zing to your jacket potatoes, steaks, cold meats, salads, cheeses and sandwiches.

HERB & GARLIC MUSTARD
This is a smooth mustard blended with garlic and fragrant herbs, such as tarragon, oregano and thyme. A great condiment to use on chicken fillet burgers, or for adding flavour to a cream sauce.

SUN DRIED TOMATO MUSTARD
A thick seeded mustard blended with sun dried tomatoes and seasonings. This mustard has a distinctive bold flavor and lovely crunchy texture that makes it ideal for barbecued steaks and for flavouring cream sauces.

SWEET ORANGE MUSTARD
This is a velvety smooth mustard with strong orange flavour that is sensational with chicken and pork, and can be used to make a zesty orange vinaigrette.

 

HARISSA CHILLI PASTES    available in 2.2 kg tubs

Christopher Columbus changed the course of our culinary history forever when he discovered the Americas and the glorious chilli!!! Now, chillies are used to enhance bland food, disguise the sometimes questionable, and challenge the taste buds of mankind.

JALAPENO HARISSA
Harissa is usually made from minced red chillies, but by using Jalapenos we have created a uniquely flavoured chilli paste. Jalapenos are fantastic chillies to go with seafood, chicken and of course, any Mexican dish.

NUCLEAR HARISSA
This Harissa is for our die hard chilli fans. Please treat this with the utmost respect and the caution it deserves, and use it only very sparingly.

TRADITIONAL HARISSA
This is a great Harissa to use for flavouring Moroccan or Middle Eastern recipes, but can also be used wherever your recipe calls for chopped or minced chillies.

WARNING:   Hot to INTENSELY HOT chillies and chilli oils are used in the manufacture of Sticky Fingers Harissa. Use sparingly in the first instance, and do NOT allow contact with eyes, nose or other sensitive body parts.
