Za’atar...

Spice mixes have held a venerable place in global cuisines from Morocco to Thailand since practically the beginning of time. They’re the shortcut you shouldn’t feel guilty about taking!  This one sounded so good and one I have never heard of - Bob!!

You’re missing out if you don’t have at least one kind of za’atar in your kitchen. There are dozens of versions of the spice, which at its most basic level is a mix of dried herbs, sesame seeds, sumac and salt.  It’s the different proportions that change. Some are more tangy, some are less.  You can add za’atar to pretty much everything;  salads, meat dishes, rice dishes and popcorn!
