Za'atar Spice Blend image

Herby, tangy, nutty, and slightly salty, this Middle Eastern blend of herbs and spices elevates every dish it touches

Provided by Adeena Sussman

Categories     Spice     Herb     Oregano     Thyme

Yield Makes around 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup picked fresh za'atar or oregano leaves (or 6 tablespoons dried oregano)
3 tablespoons dried marjoram
3 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
4 teaspoons dried thyme
1 tablespoon ground sumac
1 teaspoon fine sea salt

Steps:

  • If using fresh za'atar or oregano, arrange it on a towel-lined plate and microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring between intervals, until dry and crumbly, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes.
  • Crumble the leaves by hand or in a spice grinder until almost fine (the way dried herbs look), then combine in a medium bowl with the marjoram, sesame seeds, thyme, sumac, and salt. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
