Why we picked it

Sumac brings a lemony tartness without adding liquid, so you can freshen up a salad or a piece of grilled or roast meat just by sprinkling a little on top, right at the end.

About the product

Ground sumac is made from the dried berries of the sumac shrub and is a fine, deep cherry-red powder. It has a tart, citrusy, slightly fruity taste and is used mainly in Middle Eastern cooking. Our sumac comes from Turkey.

Taste and aroma

Tasting notes

Tart and citrusy, lemon-like, with a fruity note and a slight astringency.

How to use it

  • Sprinkle it over salads (a classic in fattoush), hummus or seasoned yoghurt.
  • Season grilled meat, fish or vegetables with it, sprinkled on just before serving.
  • It is part of the za'atar blend, alongside thyme and sesame.
  • Use it when you want a tart note without adding vinegar or lemon juice.

Storage

Store the sumac in a closed jar, away from light and moisture, so that it keeps its vivid colour and citrus aroma.

Keep somewhere dry and dark. Whole spices (seeds, sticks) hold their aroma far longer than ground ones.
