Variations of this seasoning are found all over the Middle East. It's used to flavor eggs and is also served with pita—dunk warm flatbread in good olive oil and then the spice dip. The kind sold dried (with dried thyme) in Middle Eastern stores just doesn't compare to za'atar made fresh.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
2 teaspoons ground sumac
1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons minced fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Stir together all ingredients in a small bowl.
2. Cooks' note: ·Za'atar keeps in an airtight container, chilled, 1 week.
