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!
Ingredients:
4 tablespoons ground sumac
2 tablespoons whole thyme
3 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds, coarsely ground
2 tablespoons oregano
2 tablespoons ground marjoram
1 teaspoon savory (optional)
1 teaspoon basil (optional)
2 tablespoons coarse salt
Directions:
1. 1. Crush the sesame seeds in a mortar, with a pestle.
2. 2. Add the other ingredients and crush with the pestle.
