Za'atar Zesty Thyme Herbs Mix 80g

Za'atar Zesty Thyme Herbs Mix

Za’atar is an aromatic herb mix produced from an indigenous variety of Thyme that can be used as a dip, topping, or seasoning.

The Thyme is mixed by hand with Sea Salt, Toasted Sesame, and Sumac.

It’s traditionally eaten with olive oil and freshly baked bread or used to season meat, fish, or roasted vegetables.

Palestinians claim that it has the ability to increase brainpower, with Sesame Seeds that contain zinc, which is an important mineral in learning, memory, and brain development.

Picking and mixing the herbs that go into za’atar is a skilled job often done by women, who inherit the recipes from a long line of grandmothers.

We buy ours from Sindyanna of Galilee, where women used Shade-dried za’atar leaves and use a unique recipe to create a highly flavorsome mix.
