This Middle Eastern mix of dried herbs and spices is a glorious combination of earthy, nutty, zesty, and tangy flavors, and it goes on just about anything. Since the herb can be difficult to find, za'atar is commonly made from dried thyme, oregano, sumac, and sesame seeds. But the recipes vary depending on what region they're from, with each household having their own special blend. Some za'atar recipes also contain salt, marjoram, sumac berries, dried dill, dried orange zest, caraway seeds, or hyssop.
