How to Make Za Atar
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spread 1/4 cup sesame seeds evenly on a small baking sheet or pie plate.
- Toast the sesame seeds for 6-8 minutes, or until lightly golden brown, shaking the pan halfway through.
- In a spice grinder or food processor, combine 2 tablespoons dried thyme, 1 tablespoon sumac, 1 teaspoon sea salt, 1 tablespoon dehydrated onions, and the toasted sesame seeds.
- Grind the mixture until it reaches your desired consistency – a fine powder is traditional, but you can leave it slightly coarser for a more textured za'atar.
- Transfer your freshly made Za'atar to an airtight container. Store in a cool, dark place for up to 3-4 months.
