Another day working at Cava and we may have perfected the best spicy sauce. Hot harissa vinaigrette, a bit of salt, coriander, cava spice mix and cayenne, harissa which is a hot chili pepper paste from Tunisia, red wine vinegar worse some acidity plus better. We blend that while slowly streaming in oil and get a dressing that's spicy better not overly hot. It's got layers of heat with sweet and acidic notes in between.
