Za’atar spice mix

Za’atar is an aromatic blend of herbs from Middle Eastern cuisine and is known for its spicy, slightly nutty and fresh flavour. This traditional blend is often used to add extra character to dishes and is a popular seasoning in various cuisines.

Jacob Hooy’s Za’atar spice mix consists of a balanced blend of sesame seeds, sumac, cumin, thyme, oregano and paprika. The sesame seeds give it a slightly nutty flavour, whilst the sumac adds a fresh, slightly tangy note. The combination with thyme, oregano and cumin gives the mix a warm, herbaceous base.

Za’atar is widely used as a seasoning on flatbread, vegetables, meat and salads. This herb mix is also ideal for mixing with olive oil to make a dip or marinade. Thanks to its versatility, Za’atar works well in both traditional Middle Eastern dishes and modern recipes.

Jacob Hooy has been renowned for its wide range of herbs and spices since 1743. The products are carefully selected to ensure that their flavour and aroma are preserved to the full.
