 Here is a fiery-hot spice paste from Tunisia.  This is based on Gabe
 Mirkin's recipe.  Gives punch and flavor.  Add to stews, bean salads,
 vegetable couscous dishes.  Just made some, it's quite tastey and the
 Italian dressing gives it just the right texture -- very similar to
 oil-based harissas I have known.  
 
 HARISSA
 
 1/2 t caraway seed
 1 T cayenne pepper
 1/2 T ground cumin
 1/2 t salt
 1 small clove garlic, finely minced
 2 T fat-free italian salad dressing
 
 Grind caraway seed in coffee grinder, mini-food processor, or with a
 morter and pestle.  Mix caraway, cayenne, cumin, and salt together.
 Add garlic, mix.  Add dressing and mix well.  Store covered in the
 refrigerator.  A little goes a long way.
