Method

  1. Roughly grind the sesame seeds in a mortar and pestle or a coffee grinder, set aside
  2. Make a finer grind of the remaining ingredients
  3. Mix the two together
  4. Store in an airtight container, out of the light, for up to 2 months. It begins to lose its flavour if it's stored any longer.

Serving suggestions

It can be used as a seasoning for meats and vegetables.

Mixed with olive oil it makes a spread called za'atar-wu-zayt as a dip for the sesame bread rings known as ka'ak.

You can spread it on a dough base and bake it as bread, in which case it is called manaeesh bi za'atar.

It is often eaten as a breakfast snack, sprinkled on labneh (yogurt that has been drained until it becomes a tangy, creamy cheese).

Za'atar is often sprinkled on hummus or served with olive oil as a spread or dip.
