The recipe sounds perfect for me! Making it this weekend. How long will this last in the fridge? Without canning or freezing it?

Hi  Mike,

Thanks for a great site. Can I freeze this harissa? I once made some a while ago and I used those small plastic pots of about  50-60 ml. I put some Extra Virgin Olive oil on the top before freezing. That seemed to work well I just wondered if you had tried freezing any of your recipes? 

All the best keep up the good work.
