About Sumac

Sumac is a vibrant, tangy spice made from the dried and ground berries of the sumac plant, commonly used in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines. Its deep red color and tart flavor make it a versatile seasoning for salads, meats, and dips like hummus. Sumac is a rich source of antioxidants that can help combat inflammation and neutralize free radicals, promoting overall health. It also contains vitamin C and essential minerals such as potassium, magnesium, and calcium. Low in calories and free of fats, sumac is ideal for adding flavor without compromising nutritional goals. However, as with any spice, it’s best used in moderation. Widely celebrated for its refreshing citrus-like punch, sumac not only enhances dishes but also boosts their nutritional profile, making it a sought-after ingredient in wholesome cooking.
