Time 8m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons dried oregano, preferably Greek or Turkish
2 tablespoons sumac
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 tablespoon dried marjoram or additional oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon fine sea salt

Steps:

  • Simply combine all of the ingredients in a bowl or jar, and stir to combine.
  • For enhanced flavor, warm the spices together in a medium skillet over medium heat, until fragrant and the sesame seeds are starting to turn golden. Remove from the heat and transfer to a bowl to cool. (Skip this step if you will be baking your za'atar on pita bread, which essentially does the same thing.)
  • Store za'atar in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 1 month.

HOMEMADE ZA'ATAR



Homemade Za'atar image

This za'atar spice recipe is easy to make at home from scratch with just four ingredients. While in Lebanon wild thyme is used, regular thyme from the supermarket or your garden makes a fine substitute. Za'atar refers both to the thyme plant itself, as well as this spice mix.

ZA'ATAR ZAATAR SPICE BLEND



Za'atar Zaatar Spice Blend image

This is a very useful spice blend for Middle Eastern Dishes. I have also found it to be good on cooked pasta, mixed with some olive oil, toasted pine nuts and olives. Also good on a bagel with cream cheese and then za'atar sprinkled on top. Try it on bruschetta with chopped tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar mixed up and then sprinkle with the za'atar - delish!
