ZAATAR SEASONING BLEND | ORGANIC | VEGAN

We keep ours old school: hyssop (the actual za'atar herb), sesame seeds for nuttiness and sumac for balance. Pair with olive oil and enjoy with warm bread because that's the law. So good,  you'll want to use it on everything: eggs, roasted cauliflower, grilled chicken, labneh, and yes, avocado toast.

Ingredients

organic hyssop, organic sesame seeds, organic sumac, organic thyme, organic sea salt, organic marjoram, organic oregano

Two quick things we tell customers, and the first is barely a recipe.

Mix 1 tablespoon with 2 to 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and let it rest 10 to 15 minutes. The herbs, sesame, and sumac come together into a dipping oil that works as well drizzled over grilled vegetables, roasted chicken, or a plate of hummus as it does with pita.

To the surprise of no one: sprinkle it over avocado toast with olive oil and a squeeze of lemon. Nutty sesame and sour sumac against the avocado is the reason people start buying two jars.

  • What to use it on

    Warm pita and good olive oil. Dip bread into the spice, then into oil, in that order.

    Roasted cauliflower, carrots, potatoes, and eggplant, sprinkled on once they come out of the oven.

    Hummus, whipped feta, labneh, and plain yogurt.

    Grilled chicken, fish, and salads substantial enough to be dinner.

    Fried eggs, scrambled eggs, and the toast underneath them.
