Ingredients


  • 3 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
    2 tbsp dried oregano
    2 tbsp dried thyme
    1 tbsp ground sumac
    1 tsp sea salt

Directions

Stir all ingredients in a bowl and then partially crush using a pestle and mortar or a coffee mill. Don’t crush or mill the mixture too much; you want the end result to be slightly textured, with flecks of whole sesame seeds still visible.

sprinkle over baked pitas; hummus; grilled fish, poultry or meats; or whiske into salad dressings.
