# Beirut Spice Co. Za’atar | Milk Street Store

Home Beirut Spice Co. Za’atar +4 more Beirut Spice Co. Za’atar Regular price $16.50 Unit price /  per  Description Specs Care Ingredients How to Use We’ve tasted one too many flat, underwhelming za’atars, so we called in a favor from “The Palestinian Table” author Reem Kassis. She tested seven commercial spice blends for us and Beirut Spice Co.’s za’atar stood out. (Granted, nothing tops her mother’s wild-foraged za’atar that even Chris Kimball calls a “revelation.”) Beirut Spice Co. blends four traditional ingredients—aromatic-minty hyssop, citrusy sumac, toasted sesame seeds and sea salt—in a balanced proportion for an intensely flavorful seasoning that’s herbal, nutty and tangy. Not only does this za’atar use genuine Lebanese-grown hyssop instead of easier-to-find (and blander) substitutes, it’s made with only the flower of the hyssop plant. Most commercial za’atars mix in the stems and leaves, which dulls the flavor; sticking to the flowers yields the cleanest, purest hyssop aroma and taste. Beirut Spice Co. uses freshly picked, exclusively Lebanese-grown sumac, which gives the blend a punchy brightness you don’t often get in other jars. There are no preservatives or filler ingredients to get in the way—this is really good za’atar, handcrafted in small batches in Lebanon. Even the graphic design and packaging are done in-house, making this a 100% Lebanese product from start to finish. See More Hyssop, Sumac, Toasted Sesame Seeds, Sea Salt Net Weight: 3.5 ounces Allergens: Sesame Place of Origin: Lebanon We love sprinkling this za’atar over dips like hummus and labneh. It’s great on salads, roasted veggies, grilled meats and any recipe that calls for za’atar, like Reem Kassis’ Za’atar Schnitzel , our Fried Eggs with Za’atar and Sumac and Za’atar Butter . This za’atar has a shelf life of two years. For maximum freshness, store in a cool, dark, dry place. × Image 1 of 9 Beirut Spice Co. Za’atar Regular price $16.50 Unit price /  per  $14.85 Store Pass sold out Part Business, Part Community: The Beirut Spice Co. Mission Beirut Spice Co. was founded by the Lebanese-American husband-and-wife team of Naseem and Tina Raad with one goal: Improve the circumstances of Lebanese people by sharing their culinary traditions. Between 2019 and 2020, Lebanon suffered an economic collapse that caused hyperinflation and widespread chaos, and the Raads decided to help by bringing traditional herbs and spices to the international market (and giving local farmers the profit margins they deserve). Every step of the production process is done in Lebanon by locals, preserving their culinary heritage while providing real economic relief for families.
