Yield Makes about 1/2 cup

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1/4 cup sumac
2 tablespoons dried thyme
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Put the sesame seeds in a small dry skillet over medium heat. Toast the seeds, tossing the pan occasionally, until they become fragrant and start to lightly brown. Immediately transfer them to a bowl to cool; if you leave them to cool in the pan, they could burn.
  • Stir in the sumac, thyme, cumin, and salt. Transfer to a small jar with a lid and store in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months.
