Description
Bring fresh Middle Eastern flavour into your kitchen with this aromatic Zaatar Spice Blend from The Pinch – World Spice Blends.
Zaatar is a traditional spice mix inspired by Lebanese cuisine. It combines the nutty flavour of toasted sesame with the citrusy freshness of sumac and the herbal aroma of marjoram, oregano and thyme. The result is a balanced seasoning that tastes bright, savoury, slightly tangy and beautifully toasted.
Use it as a dry rub, add it directly to the pan, mix it into marinades or sprinkle it over finished dishes for extra flavour. It works especially well with chicken, fish, eggs, sweet potatoes, roasted vegetables, salads, flatbreads and dips.
This 45g jar is ideal for everyday cooking, simple weeknight meals and Mediterranean-inspired recipes.
