Belazu Harissa & Pesto
Mediterranean sun-dried tomatoes (37%) blended with extra virgin olive oil, aged vegetarian cheese, basil and garlic into a rich, deeply savoury pesto — sun-dried tomato in place of the usual fresh basil.
Rich, intensely savoury and umami-forward, led by rehydrated sun-dried tomatoes with a rounded sweetness, mellow garlic, herbal basil and a subtle nutty note from pine kernels and aged cheese.
Toss with roasted cherry tomatoes for a fast pasta sauce; stir into soups, stews and ragù for depth; spread as a pizza base or onto dough before baking; use as a sandwich, wrap or cheese-on-toast spread, or as a dip base.

Belazu
Belazu began in 1991 when co-founder George brought a haul of fresh Provençal olives back to London; more than thirty years on it is one of the UK's most trusted names in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern ingredients, known for working hand-in-hand with its growers for decades. Rose Harissa, prepared to a closely held recipe since 1995, is the product that put the brand on chefs' shelves — Yotam Ottolenghi calls for it by name in his books — combining roasted red peppers and smoked paprika with chilli and a distinctive note of dried rose petals.
