Green Za'atar

Formerly Israeli Za'atar at World Spice, this time honored spice blend and regional variations are beloved throughout the Middle East. This version is a simple mix of herbs, toasted sesame seeds and sumac. Try it as a sprinkle on vegetables, chicken, or fish or simply mix with good olive oil to form a paste, spread on a pita, and toast until crisp. You can almost picture the street vendors in a bustling bazaar selling this time honored treat.
