Deep red berry, lemony.
Why do we like it?
It's a sour spice! We use it in all sorts of things that could use a lemony flavour but without the lemon juice.
You can use it to tart up some pitas:
Mix za’atar and sumac with olive oil to make a brushable paste
Brush on underside of pitas and place on a baking sheet
Thinly slice feta cheese and scatter on top
Grill until cheese is bubbly and pitas are toasty
Where can you get it?
Some of the sumac I've ordered online hasn't been of the nicest quality. If possible it's worth going to Selfridges/Borough Market etc. and getting Arabica's:
