Cut off the stems and soak the peppers in warm water until soft; drain and
squeeze out any excess water. Grind them, as North African Jews do, in a
meat grinder, or puree in a food processor, along with 1/4 cup of the oil,
the garlic, cumin, coriander and salt. The consistency should be a thick
puree, the color of deep red salmon. Transfer to a jar and pour the
remaining oil on top. Cover tightly and refrigerate for a few days before
using. Taste and adjust salt as needed before serving.

sparingly, as it is quite potent.

This hot sauce, which varies from village to village in Tunisia, Morocco
and even Algeria, is delicious on falafel and grilled [favorite]. And a
teaspoon of it is said to be able to cure the worst cold.
