Zahtar is a popular spice blend from the Middle East, common in recipes from Lebanon, Syria, Turkey and Iran. Use Zahtar in marinades or salad dressings for a warm, earthy flavor.

Brush pita bread with olive oil then sprinkle with Zahtar and bake for a delicious twist. Use it on meats or vegetables, especially when steaming artichokes. Zahtar is perfect for bread dipping when mixed with olive oil and balsamic.

Joseph Z. ★★★★★

I added this to a simple olive oil and lemon marinade for chicken, and the earthy warmth came through beautifully without overpowering. The blend is finely ground enough to coat the meat evenly, which made all the difference.

Matthew E. ★★★★★

I brushed this onto pita bread with olive oil and baked it—the warm, earthy flavor was spot on. It also worked perfectly as a dry rub for chicken thighs.

Claire L. ★★★★★

Finally found a zahtar that tastes like the one I remember from a little bakery in Beirut. The earthy, tangy blend is perfect brushed on pita with olive oil before baking.
