About Zhug
Zhug, also spelled zhoug, is a spicy and aromatic condiment originating from Yemeni cuisine, now popular across Middle Eastern and Mediterranean dishes. It’s made from fresh cilantro, parsley, garlic, chili peppers, and warm spices like cumin, coriander, and cardamom, blended with olive oil and lemon juice. Packed with vibrant herbs and spices, zhug boasts anti-inflammatory properties, antioxidants, and vitamins such as vitamin C and K. Its olive oil base provides healthy fats, supporting heart health. However, zhug can be high in sodium if heavily salted and is spicy, which may not suit sensitive stomachs. Commonly served alongside falafel, grilled meats, or as a dip, it adds bold flavor with a nutritional boost. Incorporate it in moderation to enjoy its health benefits without overwhelming dishes.
