Island Za'atar

8/17/2013

One of our favorite market friends, Bill asked me this spring if I have ever heard of Za'atar. Nope was my reply. Turns out Bill had just returned from an adventure in the Middle East and this is a staple spice blend. Each region is a bit different than the next. After a little research and trial and error, I gave Bill my first attempt, then a second and a third. :) finally we arrived at this blend. Its great on bread, and it packs a punch on grilled chicken. Mostly it was fun to experiment with Bill. Thanks again for the inspiration!

Very cool! If you have it at the herbary I'd like to try it. I first heard about it from a show on CNN with Anthony Bourdaine, he's some chef that traveled all over the world and tried new stuff.
