Steps:

  • If using fresh za'atar or oregano, arrange it on a towel-lined plate and microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring between intervals, until dry and crumbly, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes.
  • Crumble the leaves by hand or in a spice grinder until almost fine (the way dried herbs look), then combine in a medium bowl with the marjoram, sesame seeds, thyme, sumac, and salt. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.

1 cup picked fresh za'atar or oregano leaves (or 6 tablespoons dried oregano)
3 tablespoons dried marjoram
3 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
4 teaspoons dried thyme
1 tablespoon ground sumac
1 teaspoon fine sea salt

HOMEMADE ZA'ATAR

This za'atar spice recipe is easy to make at home from scratch with just four ingredients. While in Lebanon wild thyme is used, regular thyme from the supermarket or your garden makes a fine substitute. Za'atar refers both to the thyme plant itself, as well as this spice mix.
