Zaatar is a traditional and authentic spice blend, emblematic of Lebanese cuisine. Composed mainly of thyme, sumac, toasted sesame seeds and salt, this blend offers a unique and savory flavor, at once lemony, slightly spicy and herbaceous. Thyme brings an aromatic freshness, while sumac adds a tangy touch that enhances the dishes. The toasted sesame seeds, meanwhile, bring a subtle nutty flavor that balances the whole. Used for centuries in Middle Eastern cuisines, Zaatar is a must-have for those looking to bring a touch of exoticism and tradition to their recipes.
Zaatar is extremely versatile and can be easily incorporated into many dishes. Sprinkle it generously on pita bread with olive oil for a quick and tasty snack, or use it to season grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and salads. It is also perfect for enhancing marinades and sauces, bringing an inimitable depth of flavor to your dishes. Try it in cream cheese toast or hummus for a simple and delicious appetizer. In addition, Zaatar can be used as a condiment on the table, allowing everyone to customize their plate according to their preferences.
In addition to its exceptional taste, Zaatar is known for its health benefits. Thanks to its natural ingredients, this blend is full of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals that are beneficial for the body. Thyme is known for its antiseptic and digestive properties, while sumac is rich in antioxidants that help fight free radicals. Sesame seeds, on the other hand, are an excellent source of calcium, magnesium and fibre, which contribute to good bone and digestive health. By incorporating Zaatar into your diet, you’re not only treating your taste buds: you’re also doing your body good.
