Za'atar Spice Blend

The tangy, herbal, nutty Middle Eastern seasoning: earthy dried thyme and oregano ground fine, mixed with lemony red sumac, freshly toasted sesame seeds and a pinch of salt. Ten minutes to make a jar that lasts for months. Mix it with olive oil for manakish and dipping bread, or sprinkle it over hummus, labneh, eggs, roasted vegetables and grilled meats.
