About Lebanese zaatar

Lebanese Zaatar is a traditional Middle Eastern spice blend known for its bold, aromatic flavor. It typically consists of dried thyme, oregano, sumac, and toasted sesame seeds, often combined with salt for balance. Originating from Lebanon and widely used across Levantine cuisine, Zaatar is a staple addition to breads, dips, and marinades, or simply sprinkled over olive oil for a robust and tangy taste. Rich in antioxidants, Zaatar contains heart-healthy fats from sesame seeds and anti-inflammatory properties from sumac and thyme, making it a nutritious addition to meals. The blend provides iron, calcium, and dietary fiber, supporting bone health and digestion. However, some pre-made varieties may have added salt, which should be consumed in moderation. Its versatility and nutrient-rich composition make Lebanese Zaatar both a cherished culinary tradition and a wholesome choice for enhancing flavor while promoting overall wellness.
