Zaatar 50g Spice Blend
The Iconic Taste of the Levant, Ready to Sprinkle
Experience the authentic, tangy, and herbal taste of the Middle East with our traditional Za'atar blend. This iconic seasoning is a staple from Lebanon to Jordan, featuring a vibrant mix of earthy wild thyme, tangy sumac, and nutty toasted sesame seeds. The result is a complex flavour profile that is simultaneously herbal, citrusy, and savoury.
More than just a spice, Za'atar is a versatile condiment meant to be enjoyed daily. The classic way is to mix it with olive oil and spread it on warm flatbread for a simple, unforgettable snack. Its bright, tangy flavour makes it the perfect finishing touch to elevate everything from breakfast eggs to grilled meats, adding a burst of freshness and depth without any heat.
