ZA'ATAR SPICE BLEND

ZA'ATAR HERB BLEND
Za'atar (ZAHT-ar) is a class of herbs, and includes members of the thyme, oregano, and savory families. Za'atar is also a Middle Eastern herb blend, containing one or more of the za'atar herbs. As with many centuries-old dishes, za'atar blend has many regional and familial variations. Here is a basic za'atar recipe from Alton Brown. Okay, I tweeked it, like I most always do, adding in the necessary(to me) dried oregano. Enjoy sprinkled on top of flatbread, over grilled vegetables, or used in dips like hummus, baba ghanoush, or tzatziki. You can also add a few generous teaspoons to make a Middle Eastern version of pasta salad.

ZA'ATAR ZAATAR SPICE BLEND
This is a very useful spice blend for Middle Eastern Dishes. I have also found it to be good on cooked pasta, mixed with some olive oil, toasted pine nuts and olives. Also good on a bagel with cream cheese and then za'atar sprinkled on top. Try it on bruschetta with chopped tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar mixed up and then sprinkle with the za'atar - delish!

ZA'ATAR
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.

Ideally, this container should also be made of a material that blocks light in addition to keeping air out. Air, moisture, and light are enemies of flavor in herbs.
