Zaatar spice mix

Our Zaatar spice blend is rooted in the culinary tradition of the Middle East, particularly Lebanon, Syria and Palestine. It consists mainly of thyme, sumac and sesame seeds, sometimes enriched with other spices such as cumin. Used for centuries, it is associated with popular beliefs: it is said to stimulate the mind and strengthen the memory. Traditionally, Zaatar is mixed with olive oil and spread on flat bread to prepare the famous ‘man'oushé’. It is also used as a marinade for chicken or lamb, and can spice up salads such as ‘fattoush’. In addition to its unique flavour, Zaatar is rich in antioxidants thanks to the thyme and sumac, and is beneficial for digestion and the immune system.
