Got Olive Oil and Zaatar? Trio of 250ml Olive Oil, 6 oz Zaatar and 6 oz Dukkha

This trio offers 6 oz Jordanian Zaatar, 6 oz Palestinian Dukkha and 250 ml of fresh, first press Jordanian olive oil from family reserves in Ajloun, Jordan.

Palestinian Zaatar - is a name for “wild thyme” in Arabic, but it is also an aromatic herbal blend of herbs. An unadulterated version would include wild thyme, sumac, roasted sesame seeds, sea salts.  The spice mix originates in the Middle East. Its bold flavor compliments any dish. Sprinkle a little over cut potatoes and roast. Sprinkle on a cream cheese bagel. Mix with olive oil and use as a dip for pita bread. Sprinkle on fish, salmon, chicken, or hummus. The possibilities are endless!

Dukkha - a cousin to zaatar. This dukkha comes from the West Bank. It's a protein-packed herb mix including ground hazelnuts, grains, and legumes, like ground wheatberries and chickpeas. Other ingredients include cumin and roasted sesame seeds. The word "Dukkah" comes from the Arabic word ‘to grind,’ referring to how this blend was originally made. I love it on homemade labneh (replacing cream cheese) on a sesame bagel. It's also a great rub for lamb, chicken, and fish. It is a great way to flavor crackers, croutons, and homemade bread. Moms would make sandwich snacks using a dukkha spread to quell a rumbly tummy in between meals.

Jordanian Olive Oil - is pressed from family olive trees in Ajloun, Jordan. It's a light, natural oil produced by traditional methods and is first, cold-pressed.
