Za'atar Pure Blend - Salt Free with Real Wild Thyme (Hyssop)

Tyme Foods' pure no salt blend contains 33.3% zaatar herb (also referred to as wild thyme, Syrian or Lebanese oregano or the hyssop herb), 33.3% Sumac, and 33.3% roasted sesame seeds.  It does not contain any salt.  The lack of salt unmasks the slightly bitter and pungent flavor of the wild thyme and sharper flavor of the sumac.

This is a classic artisan made zaatar mixture as compared to low quality commercial and common grades, which often contain substitutes to the wild thyme/hyssop which is native to the Middle East, and contain wheat and other (often unknown!) fillings to increase volume, citric acid or other artificial substitutes in place of the Sumac.

We offer this zaatar in a relatively generous eight ounce portion because we are confident you will enjoy it beyond a seasoning or spice.  Try it as a dip food by dunking fresh bread or vegetable into olive oil then the zaatar - sprinkle it on salads, soups, and sandwiches - stir it into a yogurt - knead it into dough and pastry - and experiment with its many culinary possibilities.
