The Algerian Table

I'll post recipes soon. I wanted to quickly add that depending on the region and the particular table of course, harissa and fresh tomato sauce are common to the Algerian table. Diners can choose the heat level of their dishes. The tomato sauce can be piquant or sweet, it's used sort of like a Mexican salsa. Salt is usually on the table as well, especially when fava beans are served. Algerians eat alot of fresh salads of mixed wild greens. Think of sorrel, mache or arugula, purslane, dandelion greens, watercress, mustard greens and milder, sweeter lettuces. We also eat alot of refreshing orange and onion salads.
