Description

Za’atar is a combination of a handful of different spices that packs a punch of flavor. Simply grind and put into a sealed container and sprinkle on almost anything!


Ingredients

Units
  • 1/4 cup Sumac
  • 2 tablespoons thyme (fresh leaves or dried)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (roasted)
  • 3 tablespoon Oregano (or do marjoram and oregano 50-50. I was out of marjoram so added only oregano)
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon Pink Himalayan Salt (personal preference. You can just substitute with Kosher Salt or Sea Salt.)

Instructions

  1. Bring all the ingredients together. Toss or stir with a spoon to blend it all together. I personally prefer coarsely grinding them with mortar and pestle.
  2. Transfer to a clean and dry airtight container. Use as required.
  3. Zatar can be used as spice rub on meat and vegetables. Tastes amazing when mixed with extra virgin olive oil as a dip. Can also be used to make dressings for salad.
