HOMEMADE ZA'ATAR



Homemade Za'atar image

This za'atar spice recipe is easy to make at home from scratch with just four ingredients. While in Lebanon wild thyme is used, regular thyme from the supermarket or your garden makes a fine substitute. Za'atar refers both to the thyme plant itself, as well as this spice mix.

ZA'ATAR



Za'atar image

Za'atar is the name for both a traditional Middle Eastern seasoning blend and the pungent green herb that gives the blend its intense, earthy character. The hardy herb, which grows wild, tastes like a combination of oregano, marjoram, summer savory and thyme - all of which can be used as substitutes if dried za'atar isn't available. As with all spice blends, recipes vary widely depending on the region and the cook, but this one, adapted from Lior Lev Sercarz of La Boîte in New York, includes ground sumac berries for acidity, toasted sesame seeds for their rich, earthy notes, and a little salt as well. Za'atar can be used in marinades for grilled or roasted poultry or meats, mixed into dips, salads and egg dishes, or set on the table to be sprinkled on dishes as a bright and herby condiment.

Time 10m

Yield 1/3 cup

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 tablespoon/9 grams sesame seeds, preferably unhulled
3 tablespoons/5 grams dried za'atar (see Note)
1 tablespoon/10 grams crushed or ground sumac
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

Steps:

  • Place a small skillet over medium heat. Add the sesame seeds to the skillet and toast, stirring, until fragrant, 2 to 4 minutes. Pour into a small bowl and set aside to cool.
  • Using a spice grinder, clean coffee grinder, or mortar and pestle, ground the za'atar leaves with the sumac and salt. Add to the bowl with toasted sesame and mix well. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place for up to 1 year.

Tips:

  • Use fresh za'atar: Fresh za'atar has a more intense flavor than dried za'atar. If you can find it, use fresh za'atar for the best results.
  • Make sure your dough is well-chilled: This will help to prevent the dough from becoming too sticky and difficult to work with.
  • Don't overfill the pies: If you overfill the pies, they will be more likely to burst open during baking.
  • Bake the pies until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through.

Conclusion:

Za'atar pies are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or appetizer. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be enjoyed as a quick meal. With a few simple ingredients, you can create these tasty pies that are sure to please everyone.
