1 ancho chile (20g) (see note)

4 guajillo chiles (30g)

5 dried Kashmiri red chiles (12g)

2 1/2 teaspoons (10g) ground coriander

1 teaspoon (4g) ground caraway

1/4 cup (45g) extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons (30g) distilled white vinegar

3/4 teaspoon (3g) Diamond crystal kosher salt; for table salt, use about half as much by volume or the same by weight

Set up a rimmed baking sheet with a wire rack. Put on disposable latex gloves before handling the dried chiles. Using kitchen shears and, working over the wire rack, cut off the stems from the chiles and cut them into strips. Shake the sheet tray to separate the seeds from the chiles and discard.

In a spice grinder working in batches, blend the dried chiles to a fine powder. In a dry sauté pan, toast the chile powder, coriander, and caraway over medium heat until fragrant. You can stop here and use the harissa in this dry form as a seasoning blend.

To make the harissa paste, add 1 cup (240ml) water to the sauté pan and simmer until the paste is thick, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Finish the harissa paste by mixing in the olive oil, vinegar, and salt. The harissa is best the next day and keeps in the refrigerator for a month.
